We discuss her philosophy of “getting to the next edge,” why curiosity is a muscle worth building, and how team dynamics can unlock performance in ways most organizations overlook. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the size of the climb ahead, this conversation offers a practical (and powerful) way forward.

  • S3: E4 The Empathy Deficit Is Costing You More Than You Think
    Mar 23 2026
    What if you could increase innovation by 48% or boost profits by 21% - not through technology or strategy, but through empathy? In this episode of Hope @Work, I sit down with Mimi Nicklin, one of the world’s leading voices on empathy, to unpack the growing “empathy deficit” and what it means for organizations today. Mimi challenges the idea that empathy is a “soft” skill, reframing it as a measurable, trainable capability that drives performance and connection at scale. She also explores a surprising frontier: the role AI can play in demonstrating empathy and what that means for HR leaders designing the next generation of employee experiences. You’ll walk away with practical, actionable ways to build empathy starting immediately, including an understanding of why listening may be the most underdeveloped leadership skill today.
