What a beautiful and in moments heart-breaking post, thank you for sharing it with us, including the messy bits. I love these concluding lines: “Are empathy and “relator” skills are less valuable than strategic thinking?
No, they are damn hard. Every day we lose a little more tolerance for holding others’ emotions skillfully, which makes them worth more than gold.” Needed to hear this today, thank you ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for your comment, Jenny! I didn't go into how often empathy and relationship skills are "feminized" which feels like another way we bias people to diminish them. I always deeply appreciate when you teach technical skills while keeping the emphasis on heart-centered leadership.💗
