Why the Best Leaders Are Getting More Human (Not Less) with Clarice Belcher
03 Jun 2025
The Story That Changes Everything Picture this: You're in yet another meeting running too long. One person won't stop talking, tension is building, and no one addresses the elephant in the room. Then someone speaks up: "I'm feeling overwhelmed because I need some clarity. Would you be willing to give us a two-minute summary?" No blame. No drama. Just clarity and connection. That's the transformational power of what Clarice Belcher calls the language of compassion. Why You Need This Episode Leadership isn't just about metrics and meetings—it's about human connection. Clarice Belcher, a master in nonviolent communication, shares how unmet emotional needs—not failed strategies—are often at the root of disengagement, burnout, and conflict. You'll learn how to: Lead with emotional fluency using a proven 4-step framework Distinguish between feelings and judgments ("I feel that was unfair" ≠ a feeling) Make clear requests without micromanaging Build cultures of "power with," not "power over" Clarice's insights—drawn from her decades of work and real stories from Microsoft, IBM, and beyond—show how empathy and emotional intelligence create workplaces where people want to show up and contribute. The Takeaway This isn't "soft" leadership—it's smart, human-centered, and effective. If you're ready to shift from pushing harder to connecting deeper, listen in. You'll walk away with tools to create more trust, more engagement, and more aligned action—starting with your next conversation. 🔗 Learn more at AtlantaCompassion.com CONNECT WITH CLARICE Instagram Profile https://www.instagram.com/atlantacompassion/ Website (www.atlantacompassion.com), 1.
