Be a Mindful Manager

Empathy shows up in your calendar.

Because our calendars manifest what is important to us.

And as much as I want to be a person that supports those around me, the needs are too big and I often get caught up in the moment.

That is why I plan for empathy in my calendar.

So here are some tips for mindful managers.

Put check-ins into your calendar. And use this time to just hear how someone is doing; not run them through a work check-list.

Mother's and Father's Day are coming...and a lot of your people have lost someone. Start now: keep a running list of people that you want to send a text/email/call as they grieve those they lost.
