In this conversation, Jake Wood - CEO of Groundswell - will detail why empathy should no longer be one of the most commonly overlooked workplace tools, and how helping employees feel safe and supported at work leads to innovation. Drawing from his experience leading a Marine scout sniper unit through two tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as his time building and leading Team Rubicon, one of the most highly regarded nonprofits in America, he will also share how empathy, transparency, and purpose-driven communication translates from the battlefield to the workforce and creates a more engaged workforce with the potential to increase business success.
