Building Empathy into Learning Experiences

More than two years after remote work and hybrid jobs became widespread, there’s still a stark divide over how it’s going. According to a recent Microsoft survey, about 85% of managers worry they can’t tell if employees are getting enough done while 87% of workers say their productivity is just fine. Productivity isn’t just about how much time you spend on a task. It’s also about how much value you can add to your company. And this is where managers and employees often have different expectations.
