  • 312.Empathy and Strategy-Leading with Heart into the New Year with Greg and Deb
    2024/11/12

    Empathy and strategy can be a powerful combination in leadership and in planning for a new year to work together to create an environment that is both people-focused and goal-oriented. Empathy allows leaders to understand the perspectives, challenges, and motivations of their team members, fostering trust and open communication. This is more important than ever with a workforce that has been given freedom to work remotely with a great deal of trust. When paired with strategic thinking and planning, this understanding enables leaders to design plans that not only achieve organizational goals but also align with the needs and well-being of their team.

    By integrating empathy with strategy, leaders can create a culture where people feel valued and motivated, while also driving the organization forward in a deliberate, thoughtful way. We discuss some of those strategies in this episode.

Today we speak with Dr. Gala Gorman, a licensed Acupuncturist, Naturopath, and Author who offers practical advice and programs to reverse health issues resulting from chronic stress. We cover common sources and mistakes many make in dealing with stress and what she terms “Kryptonite.”
