“Remember, you’re not in charge. You’re responsible for those in your charge”-Simon Sinek

School leaders in the state of Indiana are working tirelessly to support their staff, students, and families. And though leadership comes with its joyful moments, it also comes with great weights and responsibilities. One of the most important responsibilities leaders have is to love and support their people. To be empathetic. But, how do we define or view empathy? Though this question sounds simple, when you start to dig in, it can be tough to define. In this 14-minute talk, Simon Sinek shares his perspective on empathy regarding leadership stating, “Leadership is a practicable, learnable skill.” He reminds us that, though tired and weary, we can be the supportive, connected leaders our people need.
