ISN'T LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT A JOB FOR HR?


“Many executives believe that leadership development is a job for the HR department. This may be the single biggest misconception they can have… Companies whose boards and senior executives fail to prioritize succession planning and leadership development end up either experiencing a steady attrition in talent or retaining people with outdated skills. Such firms become extremely vulnerable when they have to cope with inevitable organizational upheavals.”

— Jeffrey M. Cohn, Rakesh Khurana, and Laura Reeves, Harvard Business Review

What is Empathetic Leadership? 


When leaders communicate, they create culture. Listeners notice the difference between a leader who is stressed and one who is full of passion and purpose. Because people remember most how you make them feel, managing your mindset in high-stakes engagements is crucial to the prosperity of your organization.

Empathetic Leadership focuses on the traditional components of improving your narrative and your delivery, and adds the often-overlooked, secret ingredient: the tools to skillfully and consistently access a focused, resilient mindset.
