Creating Empowered Leaders

This week I’m speakinging with Trisha Daho, a Chief Strategy Officer, D&I Authority Change Agent, and the founder and CEO of Empowered Leadership Cultivation. Empowered is an organization dedicated to helping growing companies with business strategy and developing diverse, equitable, and inclusive work environments with inclusive leaders. Trisha talks about how leaders are dealing with the fallout of the current pandemic. As this crisis is unprecedented, leaders do not know how to coach their employees through it, and employees are not equipped to be fully productive right now. The lines that used to separate one’s personal life from their professional life are gone, and interacting with someone on a strictly professional level when they are juggling copious amounts of stress is impossible. The more you can show up to help your employees navigate that stress, the more gravitas you have as a leader, Trisha says.
