*Author and speaker Andrew D. Kaufman reveals how a moment of empathy behind bars reshaped his view of leadershipโand why the courage to be seen builds stronger relationships and trust.*
One of Kaufmanโs students, awaiting sentencing, surprised him with an unexpected act of empathy. Distracted and grieving a friendโs loss, Kaufman let down his guardโand discovered the power of being seen, not as a teacher, but as a fellow human being.
In this clip inspired by his keynote, The Courage to Stay Human, Kaufman shows how the courage to be seen can strengthen trust, deepen relationships, and transform the way we lead and live.
His insights are shaped by his PEN-finalist, Hollywood-adapted book ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ข๐๐ก๐๐ง ๐๐๐๐: ๐ผ ๐๐ง๐ช๐ ๐๐ฉ๐ค๐ง๐ฎ ๐ค๐ ๐๐ค๐ซ๐, ๐๐๐จ๐ , ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐๐ค๐ข๐๐ฃ ๐๐๐ค ๐๐๐ซ๐๐ ๐ฟ๐ค๐จ๐ฉ๐ค๐ฎ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ ๐ฎ, and 15 years teaching in jail classrooms.
