Empathy is the ability to connect with other people's needs and suffering, while compassion has the additional discernment and courage to translate this feeling into action. Our perspective on human nature informs the way we train our people. In this lab we Explore the benefits for our own well-being and professional development in training in empathy. We will introduce the values of empathy and compassion and offer techniques to incorporate these into the way we lead teams and communicate with each other.
“When you show deep empathy toward others, their defensive energy goes down, and positive energy replaces it. That’s when you can get more creative in solving problems."
