Transform Your Empathy & Emotional Sensitivity into a Superpower at Work

About the class

If you’re someone who feels a lot of emotion, that can seem like a disadvantage in the workplace, where the expectations and norms are often to be stoic, strong, and unwavering.  Many of us are conditioned to “Never let them see you sweat.”

So, what are you supposed to do if you’re full of empathy and you tend to experience a lot of emotion?

You learn to regulate your energy. In other words, you practice dialing up and down the intensity of your thoughts. You also learn to use your breath, your posture, and your movement to build greater resilience in the moment. With these micro-shifts, you’ll feel more powerful, often in seconds. Plus, it’s your secret that you’re practicing these self-adjusting techniques. Kind of like putting on an invisible cloak of power!   

Join executive coach & leadership consultant Dr. Susan Bernstein for this experiential webinar. You’ll have the opportunity to transform your empathy and emotional sensitivity into a superpower at work. 

Dr. Bernstein cares deeply about helping leaders with great empathy and emotional awareness into their optimal roles. She shares wisdom gleaned from 25 years corporate experience — including demanding leadership roles at companies like Intel and Accenture — together with her Ph.D. in mind/body psychology and over a decade of yoga practice, to share practices that will help you stay fluid and flexible as you cross the bridge into your fullest leadership. 

You’ll discover ways to stay calm and confident when…

  • you get criticized
  • you’re left out
  • you lose out on something you wanted
  • you can’t get it all done
  • you miss the mark (a target you set, or one set by someone else)
  • you perceive that your organization is underperforming
