Today with Dr. Melissa Robinson-Winemiller, we really unpacked what empathy looks like in leadership, starting with self-empathy and moving into the many different forms it can take, and how those show up in real life and in organizations. We also talked about why empathy is so critical in today’s workplaces and in society, what it can look like when it’s missing, and how closely it connects with emotional intelligence. It’s one of those conversations that really reframes how we think about leadership and how we show up with each other.
