Praise for Leading with Empathy

"This book couldn't have come at a better time. It's easy to believe that technology can transform our world, but empathy is the true path to change and growth."

-Chris Laping, bestselling author of People Before Things

"With an open heart, Gautham shares insights from his mother who made an outsized impact on his life and leadership. In Leading with Empathy, he extends an opportunity for us to take a moment and reflect on what really matters then turn it into action. To honestly look at ourselves and each other as we are right now. Empathy is foundational to self-awareness and transformational leadership, making real connections with team members and in everyday relationships. In these times of much turmoil, grief and 'getting by', our individual and collective healing begins with empathy. Gautham is leading the way."

-Nancy Williams, CEO, No More Empty Pots

"Leading with Empathy is an incredibly timely book with so much uncertainty in the world these days. Gautham's use of personal stories and practical exercises for managing stress and connecting with others in new ways really brings empathic leadership to life. I personally am fascinated by the three types of empathy and have committed to focusing more on compassionate empathy as I continue to grow as a leader."

-Julie Cullivan, C-level Global Business Leader; Independent Board Member

"As an active advocate for empathy in the workplace, Gautham successfully has learned to balance being both a skilled technologist and a compassionate humanist. In Leading with Empathy, Gautham shares his experiences and provides practical guidance for adopting new strategies for empathetic leadership-strategies that will help the global community navigate into the next normal."

-Jayne Groll, CEO, DevOps Institute
