Most people don't view empathy as an intrinsic part of leadership; leadership is generally seen as logical where empathy is emotional. However, whether you're working with a small group, a large team or an entire company, each of these configurations consists of the same thing: people, and people are emotionally-driven. Someone might forget what you say to them, but they won't forget how you made them feel. In order to solve people's problems, it's important to understand the emotions that motivate them.
