The Importance of Empathy in Agile w/ Tim Wise

After co-teaching a CSM class in Atlanta earlier this week, Tim Wise and Dave Prior sat down to talk about  Empathy in Agile. During their conversation, they dug into why empathy is such an important factor in developing an Agile mindset, working with teams, building trust, and helping your organization adopt an Agile approach to work.

Tim and Dave also offer some advice on:

How you can go about trying to develop empathy towards those up and down the org chart
How that plays out in your communication with others
How to deal with groups of people you may find especially difficult to have empathy towards
