Empathy-led is a show about empathetic leaders, organizations and brands and for people who aspire to infuse a great dose of empathy into their lives and organizations.
We started this show because our vision at the grio agency is a world with more empathetic leaders, organizations and brands. And we hope that you will come along with us on this journey, and that together we can make the work a more empathetic place.
Building a great company culture isn’t about winning the amenities race, but about having an organization where everyone feels a sense of belonging and ownership for the missions.What you end up with is a company full of people who think like the CEO, where an engineer feels compelled and comfortable enough to share his ideas about how to improve marketing.This is the culture that Adeola Adedewe and his team at Kredete are working really hard to create.Watch the full conversation to hear just what it takes to make it happen.In this conversation with Adeola, we talked about the power of immigration to help strengthen our self-awareness and empathy muscles. We discussed #Africa and why it is the place to be right now. We explored how #entrepreneurship, #education and the #internet will play a role in shaping the future of Africa, and the world, in the next 50 years.
The revolution will not be televised. It will be broadcasted.
Adeola Adedewe is one of the brilliant and socially-conscious young people who are leading the revolution currently taking place in Africa.
While the cultural richness, talent, and ambition that fuel this revolution are not new, wide access to the internet is. And it is giving investors a window into Africa and the land of opportunity that it represents.

Without trust there's no business growth
When I asked James Yoder what the secret to scaling a business is, he answered it as most empathetic leaders would:
"Building your team and trusting them."
To some people, trust-- like empathy-- seems too mushy or impractical when applied to business. But I think about it in very practical ways.
The hardest part about scaling a business is that the founder(s) get further and further removed from daily operations. They no longer have their hands in everything and now have to trust other people with their vision.
In that transitional phase, leaders become painfully aware that while they remain ultimately accountable for anything that happens with the business, they are no longer fully responsible for delivering it. They have to rely on other people and are essentially at their mercy. I call it the paradox of leadership.
Simply put, without trust, there's no growth. I can't think of anything more practical than that.
In this episode with James Yoder, we talked about entrepreneurship, leadership, and kinship. I even asked James how he wants to be remembered.
Tune in to episode 04/ season 03 of Empathy Led, to hear his answer, and more.

We are all in this together
In this episode we talked about the power of self awareness to make us more empathetic as people and as leaders.
We discussed what it takes for leaders to lead empathy and for us to build organizations where people feel seen, heard, and cared for.
If any of these ideas resonate with you, then this episode is for you.
