Empathy-Driven Leadership with Jaime Hunt

Jaime Hunt, a veteran higher ed marketing leader, consultant, speaker, and author, joins the show to talk about the principles of empathy-driven leadership she outlines in her new book, Heart Over Hype. 

Jaime and Jarrett discuss:

• Common misconceptions about empathy and why it’s not about simply being nice

• How psychological safety directly impacts a team’s ability to generate innovative ideas

• What it does and doesn’t mean to bring “your whole self” to work

• Tips for understanding your own leadership style

• And an exercise you can use to begin applying empathy-driven principles in your own work. 

This was a fun and thought-provoking talk that's relevant to anyone in a position of leadership who wants to unlock their team’s full potential.
