Empathy and Humility in Business

Here is what I learned while coaching over 100 professionals from around the globe. People are unbelievable smart. Don’t ever try to tell them what to do. Help them figure out for themselves, how to best achieve their goals. They all find their solutions.

This needs empathy.

You also need humility. “One size fits all” is dead. Customers want what is right, just for them. Don’t try to push your product, your worldview, your lifestyle on them.

Here is your change to be indispensable. Become the linchpin that connects your boss to a certain type of customers. Become the expert who understands this lovely weirdos – and be the genius who is humble enough to sell them what they want – instead of what you want.

  • First job interview within 18 hours!

    Summer 2013. My fellow students looked intently at the photos of the two men that I had projected onto the screen. I had to prepare a short presentation for a term paper. I decided to do a little experiment instead. I explained the task to my fellow students: You are asked to interview a candidate for the position of Finance Director. But you can only choose one of the two. Which one are you inviting and why?” Three quarters of my classmates chose the gentleman with white hair - and white skin. Only a quarter w voted for the man with black hair and "southern complexion". The dark-skinned man was Carlos Slim, then the richest man in the world. The white man was the fraudster Bernard L. Madoff.
