Empathic Leaders Connect With Clients


ìEmpathy is one of the cornerstones of effective, people-centered leadership. It is a skill demanded by today's increasingly savvy clients who expect personalized, perceptive service and judicious, insightful advice,î says psychologist Ron Thiessen, a member of the Order of Psychologists of Quebec.
 
Ron will discuss the hallmarks of an empathic leader at the Distinguished Advisor Conference, November 8 -11 at the Loews Ventana Canyon Resort in Tucson, Arizona. He will explore ideas to cement your relationship as an indispensable advocate for your client, discuss how you can seize the opportunity to consolidate your position as a most trusted advisor through the exercise of your formidable people skills, and investigate how an advisor's role as a thoughtful empathic leader can augment your influence with clients in turbulent times.
