[Trauma-Informed] Leadership Uncensored

When aspiring and emerging leaders see, read and learn how even seasoned leaders lose their balance and recover, it humanizes the struggle, it places their trauma, vulnerability and empathy right in the middle of the room and we emotionally connect to it. LEADERSHIP UNCENSORED strips away the pretentiousness and openly discusses the good, the bad, the funny, the ugly, the lessons, the failures, the tears, the embarrassments and of course, the rewards of leadership.

[Trauma-Informed] Leadership Uncensored

November 27, 2020 • Dr. Dawn Emerick • Season 1 • Episode 5

We need emotional intelligence and trauma informed leadership now more than ever. The outdated coercive style of leading and managing people is out.

Emotional intelligence and trauma informed leadership is an approach that acknowledges there is an emotional world of experiences that runs deep within each of us. When these emotional responses are triggered in the workplace, each person responds according to the extent of their emotional scars, traumas and emotional strengths.

Rather than creating a tinderbox workplace culture that asks,

“What’s wrong with you?”

We should be asking,

“What happened to you?”

"What matters to you?”

“What can we accomplish together?”
