Empathy Isn’t Weak — It’s Your Most Dangerous Advantage
If you think empathy makes you soft, you’ve already lost the negotiation.
In this masterclass, psychiatrist and bestselling author Dr. Judith Orloff dismantles the myth that empathy is a weakness — and reveals how it can become your sharpest strategic edge in business, leadership, and life.
You’ll learn:
Why emotionally detached “logic” leaders burn out — and how to fix it
How to disarm aggression and navigate conflict with strength and clarity
The difference between performing empathy and actually living it
How to lead teams without shame, ego, or bulldozing ideas
When empathy can fail — and how to spot narcissists before they exploit you
Tactical ways to respond when you're out of time, out of patience, or totally disagree
Dr. Orloff shares practical, actionable tools from her book The Genius of Empathy (with a foreword by the Dalai Lama), including strategies for tough conversations, emotional self-protection, and leading with intention — not intimidation.
If you want to be respected, trusted, and heard — this episode is your blueprint.
