 This is your The Women's Leadership Podcast podcast.

Thank you for joining me on The Women’s Leadership Podcast, where we get right to the heart of what shapes empowered, effective workplaces. Today, let’s talk about leading with empathy and how women can transform their organizations by fostering psychological safety—a must-have in any thriving team.

Let’s get real: the way women lead is shifting business cultures for the better. Research from organizations like the Center for Creative Leadership shows empathy isn’t just a "nice-to-have”; it’s the foundation for high job performance, team collaboration, and creative breakthroughs. Leaders like Jacinda Ardern, New Zealand’s former Prime Minister, and Sheryl Sandberg, the former COO of Facebook, have shown just how powerful empathy can be when it comes to guiding others through crisis and change. Their willingness to connect emotionally set new standards of resilience and unity.

But what does this look like day to day? It starts with creating genuine psychological safety. That means building an environment where every voice is valued, and everyone feels confident taking risks or sharing their ideas without fearing backlash or ridicule. Empathetic women leaders make this possible by listening actively and reflecting on what their team members really need—whether that means acknowledging diverse perspectives in team meetings or championing remote work for better work-life balance.

Alex Bishop, a leader who’s spoken at the Women in Leadership Dinner hosted by Page Executive, puts it well: psychological safety is about letting everyone be their true, authentic selves at work. It’s not enough to fill a room with diversity; leaders need to ensure every team member feels included and empowered to contribute. This is especially crucial for women, and even more so for marginalized groups, who may otherwise struggle with isolation or fear when sharing their perspectives.

So how can you, as a leader, foster this culture? Start by embracing active listening—really, genuinely hearing what people are saying. Cultivate emotional intelligence, as highlighted by Savitha Raghunathan from Red Hat. Tune into your own feelings and your team’s, so you can respond with insight instead of judgment. Encourage open communication: make it clear that questions and dissent are not just accepted, but welcomed. Celebrate each team member’s unique background and contributions. Actively mentor, sponsor, and advocate for women; don’t just listen—lift each other up with opportunities.

Finally, don’t shy away from failure. Share your own setbacks and what you’ve learned. When leaders show vulnerability, it signals to everyone that mistakes aren’t career-enders—they’re growth moments.

Evidence from Boston Consulting Group shows that workplaces high in psychological safety have four times higher retention rates, especially for women and people from marginalized backgrounds. When we lead with empathy, we’re not just making individuals feel good—we’re building stronger organizations where creativity and loyalty thrive.
