There is an empathy crisis happening globally right now.
Did you know that 33% of people cannot see the viewpoint of others? Empathy can be seen as a five letter word to some people, but to Empathy Activist Rob Volpe Empathy is the "E" word.
In this 10 minute summary of the full interview with Rob that can be watched here: https://youtu.be/vbaDkLhiaMY
Rob sums up the 5 Steps To Being Empathetic for you quickly and succinctly until you have time to go back and watch the full episode.
When people think about being empathetic they get scared, confused, frustrated or don't understand. They think they have to give up their own beliefs system to be empathetic. NOT TRUE!
Empathy is about understanding the gap between what is going on with another person and yourself and provides the opportunity to compromise, collaboration, and work toward solution and resolution. Simply said, empathy can be defined in two words: understanding and connection.
In Rob's new book, Tell Me More About That: Solving The Empathy Crisis, he provides the exact 5 Steps to Being Empathetic in life, at work and as a leader:
1. Dismantle Judgement - Self Awareness
2. Asking Good Questions - Tell Me More About That
3. Actively Listen - Be Present
4. Integrating Into Your Understanding - Put Your Own Perspective Aside
5. Using Solution Imagination - Putting Yourself Into The Shoes Of Somebody Else
