Redefining Leadership Through Compassion

Executive coach, Nadine Mendelek Theimann, PhD, PCC, discusses how mindfulness, compassion and purpose can save corporate Leadership. Since mid-March of 2020, we’ve faced an expanding global pandemic, associated extreme economic volatility and mass protests over racial injustice. The convergence of these three crises has many business leaders questioning if their leadership skills that they have honed over the years will be the same skills they will need to face the challenges of the "new normal." In this new normal, leadership is more important than ever before – because the best leaders define reality and inspire hope. Host Craig Welch from BlackMoss Partners spoke with Nadine about what type of leader is needed for the new normal. Nadine has coached and counselled many c-suite executives from various industries including financial services, manufacturing, insurance, high-tech and telecommunications. She is an executive leadership coach who has an extensive career in coaching high-profile executives globally in leadership development. Her clients include Facebook, Apple, Blue Shield, Medidata, Texas Instruments, Columbia Sportswear, Groupon, MSCI, and Legalzoom. In addition to her academic credentials in leadership coaching and counselling, Nadine also holds a PhD in Economics and was a Visiting Fellow at Princeton University’s Department of Economics.
