Thanks to Sony Music Entertainment for hosting yesterday’s session on Empathetic Communication for Leaders. It’s wonderful to see companies in the Music industry recognising the value of listening, vulnerability and courage as they seek to create workplaces full of happy, engaged and fulfilled employees.
I had the pleasure of connecting with 90 leaders from across the business. There was so much sharing and positivity, and reading about the mentors and teachers in your lives who’d inspired you brought a lump to my throat π It has been a joy to see the lovely comments and feedback after the session. Huge thanks to Mariana Ortega (she/her) and Destiny Gregory for setting up the event and also to Sharon Ashley Liz Snair Marilia Diaz-Vivo (she/her/hers) Simon Semrau and Claire Solan for your feedback. It’s great to be connected π
Hi, Iβm Shola and I help you create a people-first culture. My work sits at the intersection of Inclusion, Communication & Emotional Intelligence.
My keynote talks and workshops help your leaders and employees create high-performing work environments where people feel a sense of belonging and psychological safety. Sessions are high energy, interactive, and every participant walks away with at least one practical framework for connecting and collaborating more effectively.
Sound good to you? Please reach out and let’s discuss your next event! ππ€β¨
