Lemonjuice Solutions
Orlando-based resort management company Lemonjuice Solutions recently ran their executive leadership team through an immersive empathy-minded leadership workshop. This training has gained significant traction and importance since the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Many HR departments think it’s just for ‘problem companies,’ but organizations with already effective leadership and workplace culture have much to gain from recent research,” said Wendy Williams, organizational consultant and facilitator of workshops that help teams and leaders learn and apply that knowledge.
With post-pandemic challenges still in play and workplace culture ever-shifting, organizations need help identifying any communication issues that could hold them back, Williams explained. “And beyond that,” she continued, “when teams and leadership begin interacting in ways informed by empathy and mindfulness, you start to see big leaps in what they achieve together.”
“The two days of immersion into the science and practice of leading with empathy were unexpectedly valuable and fulfilling,” says Scott MacGregor, Lemonjuice’s COO. “Most of the Lemonjuice senior leadership team have had decades of leading and managing people, and we’ve built our team with people of shared values for honesty and compassion. We all want to work for a company that everyone wants to work for. But Wendy helped remind us about the values of active listening, self-awareness, and the mindset that supports an empathetic environment and gave us tools and strategies to become better at leading with empathy. Being nice, fair, and thoughtful are all good qualities, but leading and co-working empathetically are skills that can be sharpened with practice and professional guidance.”
