Leading Change with Empathy
Nothing stays the same. In fact, if we keep doing things the same way we’ve always done them, it’s likely our performance will decline. Change is the only constant in our organizations and in life, and for most, change is uncomfortable. For organizations to stay relevant and innovative, teams must work through fears quickly, and to do so, leaders must make decisions and communicate these decisions by connecting the mind and the heart. On today’s show, Janet discusses 3 leadership characteristics necessary for managing continuously changing organizations.
This episode addresses questions, such as:
- What does it mean to be an authentic leader?
- Why does connecting the mind and the heart motivate teams?
- How do we move conversations back to the point?
