Never React Before You Understand: The Real Power of Empathy in Leadership
Manage episode 517914895 series 3691346
When pressure rises, even the best leaders can react before they truly understand.
In this episode of Execution Insights™, Jim Huling shares a true coaching story that reveals how empathy can transform leadership — not as a soft skill, but as a strategic advantage.
You’ll hear how one leader’s painful realization became a turning point, and why empathy often begins with a single act of restraint — the pause before you respond.
Listen as Jim explores:
• How empathy deepens trust and strengthens performance
• A simple way to pause before reacting — even under pressure
• What great leaders do to stay grounded and connected when stakes are high
If you’ve ever wished you could lead with more understanding — and less reaction — this episode is for you.
