Connect with Empathy, But Lead with Compassion
For close to two years, leaders have been thrust into the role of Counselor in Chief, helping teams recover from the grief and loss of the pandemic, buoying the declining mental health of their employees, being sensitive to people’s anxieties and often publicly sharing their own vulnerabilities along the way.

An Adult’s Guide to Social Skills, for Those Who Were Never Taught
Unlike topics like math or science, social skills are more of a “learn on the job” kind of skill. When you’re a child, you can learn how to manage conflict, make friends and navigate groups by doing it. But not everyone learns the same lessons the same way.

Releasing this week!
Issue 56:
Everyone Matters in Diversity & Inclusion
The conversation surrounding Diversity and Inclusion certainly raises a lot of questions. So where do issues related to Diversity and Inclusion stand today? How have companies made changes to address these issues? Where are we seeing progress and where are there still inequities to be addressed? What’s more, how has the pandemic set us back when it comes to Diversity and Inclusion efforts?
While leadership support is a critical factor, building diverse, authentic relationships that create empathy is a worthwhile investment that takes time. This is something all of us can do every day – no matter how small the initiative – to appreciate diversity and inclusion. An important step towards a more equitable and representative workplace is to go beyond learning and instead, to listen and act. Simple steps to better understand what drives the people we connect with every day goes a long way toward creating an environment where all of us feel that we belong. This is an essential part of business growth that intends to serve people from diverse backgrounds and needs.
Specially for all our Newsweekly readers, here’s a FREE & FULL article from Issue 56 titled "From Intention to Reality – Creating Diversity and Inclusion in Insurance" for your reading pleasure!
Complimentary access to the full Issue is now available at https://miipublications.com.my/ for all MII Members. To become a member, click HERE.
Alternatively, you can subscribe to the e-INSURANCE Magazine HERE. |
