From French Horn to Modern Leadership: with Dr. Melissa Robinson Winemiller
About Dr. Melissa Robinson Winemiller
Melissa Robinson-Winemiller reinvented herself as an expert in empathy and EQ after losing a career in music to brutally unemphatic leadership and has never looked back. Her goal was to discover how to create better leadership with the single element most leaders in her experience overlooked: Emotional intelligence through the use of empathy. How serious is she? Serious enough to bring 30+ years of leadership experience to the fore, to pursue a second doctorate in Interdisciplinary Leadership with a dissertation focus on Empathy in Leadership, and to have an MBA and Master of Data Analytics to be able to back up her arguments with data-driven proof and sound business cases. Yes, she has experience, expertise, AND education. Add to this decades as a coach and public speaker, and she’s created the perfect blend to counsel both current and emerging leaders in navigating these turbid waters to increase productivity, innovation, and profit! Want more? Her book on The Empathic Leader will be released THIS SEPTEMBER for those leaders who really want to BE the difference
