Rae Shanahan is the CEO at Innovation Works, and Chief Strategy Officer of Businessolver, Benefits Administration technology. At Innovation Works, they support incubating new business strategies and opportunities focused on delivering delight to our clients and their employees. In this conversation with Rae, we discuss some of the key findings in the new Businessolver 2023 State of Workplace Empathy, in its 8th annual iteration. We talk about how the survey came to be. We explore why HR managers are feeling so burned out, how to measure empathy, the optimistic bubble of CEOs, why to hold ideas lightly and why empathy is not a weakness, despite what CEOs fear.
