    Brown says that “the two most powerful words when we’re in struggle: Me, too.” Empathy is very important in leadership as it requires the leader to take someone else’s perspective and to understand another person’s feelings. Instead of forcing her theories on managing interpersonal relationships at work, Brown argues for vulnerability. She describes it as having tough, truthful conversations without the risk of penalization. Brown writes that a wholehearted leader manages people by leading them from the heart. He wouldn’t be threatened by showing his own imperfections.

Brown defined values as the human ideals that a leader considers as the most important in his life. Leaders who know what their values have an easier time when they deal with adversity. They let their values guide them and they have something that they can hold on to in the dark and difficult times. Values not only allow the leader to be resilient but also to do what’s right. Brown advises to only focus on two values. When a leader prioritizes two values above all the others, this gives him a specific ideal that he can turn to when hard times come.
