Why Highly Sensitive People Make Great Leaders with Jennifer Tsang, PCC

The Highly Sensitive Leader: It may not seem like it, but Highly Sensitive People make phenomenal leaders. The future of organizations and leadership requires more Highly Sensitive People to lead teams because of their unique ability to empathize with their staff, especially if they can hone and regulate their own system so that they do not get overwhelmed or drained. The future of leadership requires leaders be more empathetic and lead themselves in a way that makes people feel seen, heard and like they belong. As a Highly Sensitive Person, you probably are familiar with the feeling of not being seen or heard or like you belong, making HSP’s the perfect people to lead teams through complex, difficult situations. HSP’s are masters at empowering others, which enables people to feel safe and like they can bring their whole selves to the world.
