This is a replay of Episode #13 with Melissa Cohen.
Hello, and welcome back to another episode of Her HypeSquad with Bosstrack!
In this episode, I have a wide-ranging conversation about leading with empathy with Melissa Cohen, a fashion industry executive. She offers some great advice and insight you don’t want to miss!
Melissa and I talk about about what empathy looks like, how to develop empathy, and why it’s so important to have empathy as a leader today. And of course, we talk about Brene Brown because who can have a conversation about empathy without talking about her?
