Empathy in the Workplace: A Tool for Security Challenges

Empathy as a Weapon

Using Empathy as a Security Tool

Prime Secured continually tests, recommends and implements security hardware, software and processes across many different industries and venues. But security is much more than that. Over the years, we’ve learned one security element is more important than all the others combined. You can’t buy it, package it or wire it. We are talking about empathy.

Before you click out of this page thinking we’re getting too sentimental on you, please give us a moment to explain. We promise this “tool” will save you time and money – and it will help ensure the longevity of your enterprise.

Empathy, in all its personal and corporate forms, can be a compelling part of your security solution.

Why empathy matters in the workplace

Angela Nino, CFI, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Empathic Workplace, can prove empathy is more than a one-time lesson and is, instead, essential to the success of any organization. She has seen tangible, bankable results with corporations she’s worked with to establish a culture of empathy.

Angela’s background began as an asset protection and loss prevention expert. She is also a certified forensic interviewer who has worked with many security professionals across the U.S., including government officials and Fortune 500 security personnel. In her past life Angela worked with large retailers such as Target and Ralph Lauren bringing them the concept, “empathy as a security tool.”

“As business leaders, we need to demonstrate more empathy than we ever have,” Nino explained in a webinar hosted in conjunction with Prime, “because if we don’t lead with empathy, it will be hard for people to do what you need them to do.”
