Completely agree with Alice, the stress of healthcare when youโ€™re a mum trying to get the best for your child. I will always remember my son after his OPA โ€˜Thatโ€™s a day in my life I will never get back again.โ€™ Different has got to be better! #digitalNursing

There's a growing understanding of the importance of empathy (the ability to understand, share & respond to emotions/perspectives of others) for leaders. For every competency that helps a leader become more empathetic you can draw a line that connects it with a better way of delivering results. @hacking_hr has produced a leader's "playbook" for empathy. It sets out: - 9 strategies to build trust and a people-centric culture through empathy - 7 ways to improve the experience of people at work through empathy - 10 key actions for empathy-driven success in leadership - 8 competencies of the empathetic leader - key insights on the power of cultivating empathetic leadership at work linkedin.com/pulse/leaders-pโ€ฆ.

"Conversation is the communal air we breathe". A summary & sketchnote of "Supercommunicators" - a new book by @cduhigg. It sets out why some people ("supercommunicators") are able to connect with others, build consensus & influence people to join them. He suggests this can be replicated. The first step is working out what kind of conversation we are having. Is it: 1) analytical (Whatโ€™s this really all about?) 2) emotional (How do we feel?) 3) identity based (Who are we?). Only after recognising what type of conversation the other person wants to have can we connect: qaspire.com/supercommunicatoโ€ฆ. Blog & visual by @tnvora.
