Launched on June 4th, 2026, the book has achieved Amazon Best-Seller status, marking a significant milestone in its journey.
Central to the success of “Lead with Empathy” is Sue Tomat’s chapter, “The Backing Vocalist’s Revolution.” Sue shares stories about how empathetic leadership in the workplace demands shifts in perspective and courage. It is wise self-interest, the clear-eyed view that our long-term success is inseparable from the success of the people around us. And it is good judgement, a quality that will only grow more valuable as AI takes over more of what we once considered thinking.
“Lead with Empathy” has achieved outstanding success on Amazon, earning Best Seller status across multiple business and leadership categories, including Communication & Skills, Marketing, Entrepreneurship, Marketing & Sales, and Direct Marketing.
The book also reached the coveted #1 New Release position in Direct Marketing and gained widespread recognition across Amazon’s New Release lists, ranking among the top new releases in Entrepreneurship, Marketing, Communication Skills, Business Development & Entrepreneurship, Marketing & Sales, and Business & Money. These impressive rankings reflect the book’s strong resonance with entrepreneurs, business professionals, and leaders seeking to elevate their impact through empathy-driven leadership.
