The Ballet of Empathy

Stories about the power of human connection, the heartbreak of human connection, and the power of forgiveness. In The Ballet of Empathy: A Leadership is Love Podcast, Dr. Mark Rittenberg, Distinguished Teaching Fellow at UC Berkeley Haas School of Business, explores what it means to lead through communication, presence, and relationship. Known for his Active Communicating methodology and decades of work with leaders and organizations around the world, Mark brings listeners into the real moments where leadership is tested: conflict, apology, forgiveness, culture change, and the decisions we make to stay in dialogue when it would be easier to withdraw. Each episode is built around stories from Dr. Rittenberg’s corporate life, academia, and global leadership work, paired with inspiring lessons on how to “show up and choose to be present,” practice the power of dialogue, and lead with empathy, honesty, and humanity. You will also hear the other side of leadership: the heartbreak of human connection, ghosting, and silence. The Ballet of Empathy is an invitation to commit an act of love through leadership: communicate, repair, and keep the conversation alive— and continue the dance of human connection.
