A groundbreaking new handbook for business leaders who want to form stronger connections with the people they lead.

In The Empathy Gap, corporate strategy and management consultant Daniel Murray delivers a unique and unconventional approach to contemporary leadership, emphasising the power of empathy. Empathy is not just a secondary soft skill, but rather a powerful tool for driving performance, fostering innovation and leading in today's complex, diverse and fast-paced world.
