Welcome to The Women’s Leadership Podcast. Today’s episode focuses on a subject at the heart of powerful, lasting change in organizations—leading with empathy, and how women leaders can foster psychological safety at work.
Let’s get right to it: women leaders are redefining workplace culture across industries by showing that empathy isn’t just a soft skill—it’s a strategic superpower. We see this in action with leaders like Jacinda Ardern in New Zealand, whose compassion during national crises built unity and resilience, and Sheryl Sandberg at Facebook, whose openness about loss and advocacy for women created a culture of support and authenticity.
So, what does it mean, in practice, to lead with empathy? Research consistently finds that women score high in emotional intelligence, excelling at reading the room, picking up unspoken anxieties, and connecting deeply with team members. This puts women in a unique position to build environments where people feel seen, heard, and encouraged to bring their whole selves to work.
Empathy starts with active listening. It’s about hearing beyond the words—tuning into what’s being said and, equally importantly, what isn’t. By practicing active listening, leaders like Red Hat’s Savitha Raghunathan demonstrate that emotional awareness isn’t just about understanding others’ feelings—it’s about using that understanding to make smarter, more compassionate decisions in real time.
This brings us to psychological safety. Imagine a workplace where everyone—from the newest intern to the CEO—feels comfortable voicing ideas, asking questions, or even challenging the status quo without fear of embarrassment or retaliation. Data shows that environments lacking psychological safety see less innovation, higher burnout, and fewer women advancing into leadership. As Alex Bishop puts it, “psychological safety means creating an environment where everyone can be their authentic selves.” For women, this is especially crucial. Without it, bias, stereotype threat, and isolation can silence voices and stifle potential.
To foster psychological safety, women leaders need to model vulnerability themselves. That’s sharing your own mistakes, welcoming feedback, and showing that imperfection is part of growth. When you lead by example, you invite your team to step forward with their ideas—even the wild ones—and you turn mistakes into catalysts for learning.
Inclusivity is also essential. An empathetic leader doesn’t just tolerate difference, she celebrates it. That means creating space for every voice, ensuring meetings are equitable, and seeking out perspectives you might otherwise miss. It’s about building teams where diversity isn’t just a buzzword but the engine of creativity and success.
Let’s turn these insights into action. As women leading with empathy, our charge is clear. Encourage open communication, cultivate emotional intelligence, and make psychological safety a non-negotiable. The result is a workplace where women—and everyone—can thrive, innovate, and lead without limits.
Thanks for listening to The Women’s Leadership Podcast. Let’s keep leading with empathy and transforming the world, one workplace at a time.
