Welcome to The Women’s Leadership Podcast. Today, we’re diving straight into one of the most powerful forces shaping the future of work: leading with empathy and how women leaders can foster psychological safety in the workplace.
Let’s start with why empathy matters. According to research highlighted by Culture Proof, women leaders consistently demonstrate higher levels of empathy than their male counterparts. This isn’t just a personality trait—it’s a core leadership strength. Jacinda Ardern, former Prime Minister of New Zealand, changed the world’s view of crisis leadership through compassion, notably after the Christchurch attacks and the COVID-19 pandemic. Her empathetic approach unified a nation and set a new global standard. In the corporate world, Sheryl Sandberg, former COO of Facebook, has pushed empathetic leadership forward by openly discussing grief, resilience, and supporting women in tech, fundamentally reshaping workplace culture.
But let’s bring it to the day-to-day: what does *leading with empathy* actually look like? Empathy begins with active listening—truly hearing your team, not just waiting your turn to speak. Savitha Raghunathan, Senior Software Engineer at Red Hat, emphasizes emotional intelligence as a superpower: being in tune with your own emotions and those of others is a gateway to trust and mutual respect. When leaders foster open communication, team members feel valued, and inclusivity becomes the norm.
That brings us to *psychological safety*. The Center for Creative Leadership describes psychological safety as a deliberate priority. It means making it clear to your team that mistakes are opportunities for growth, not moments for punishment. Normalizing failure—not as a setback but as a stepping stone—empowers your team to take risks and share new ideas. Alex Bishop, speaking at Page Executive’s Women in Leadership Dinner, reminds us that true inclusivity isn’t just diversity on paper. Without psychological safety, even the most diverse teams become silent, their potential untapped.
Let’s highlight some actionable strategies for building this safety net. First, model vulnerability as a leader: share your own lessons from failure and ask for help when needed. This encourages others to do the same. Second, create formal and informal ways for everyone to voice opinions, especially those who may feel marginalized. Third, celebrate differences—actively recognize and lean into the unique perspectives women, especially those from underrepresented backgrounds, bring to the table.
Empowered women elevate the entire culture. They create space for authenticity, foster resilience after setbacks, and drive innovation through openness. As organizations become more psychologically safe, they see more women advancing, less burnout, and greater engagement, as noted by both Page Executive and Womanition.
To the women leading with empathy and courage, know that your approach is not just changing teams; it’s changing entire industries. Thank you for tuning in to The Women’s Leadership Podcast.
