I’d like to begin this episode by acknowledging the land that I am learning and living on is the traditional un-ceded, un-surrendered territory of the Anishnaabeg Algonquin People.

In this episode, we’re talking with Lynn Power, the Co-Founder & CEO of MASAMI and the Co-Founder of Isle de Nature and we will be talking about how being an empathetic leader will help build more effective teams.  

We’ll do this by clarifying the difference between being sympathetic and empathetic and how emerging leaders can check to see which version they lean towards.  We’ll also discuss how empathy can make emerging leaders stronger team leaders and in turn, make their teams much more effective.  

Lastly, we’ll offer some practical tools to help emerging leaders become more empathetic leaders.
