Summary/Abstract: Being able to put oneself in another's situation is truly a mastery skill that builds a manager's personality, team spirit and mutual trust. The aim of the paper is to declare the real importance of an empathy in a managerial work, as well as to present the results of empathy quotient on a sample of Slovak managers. For the examining, we used the Baron-Cohen and Wheelwright self-assessment test of empathy on a sample of 707 Slovak managers. Through our research, we conclude that Slovak managers have an above-average level of empathy. These positive findings opens up space for its implementation in every day work and also to reevaluate value preferences by knowing what makes a real sense. Secondary and primary survey results declare the fact that the right amount of empathy is not a sign of weakness, but of a person's greatness
