You have the school supplies purchased and loaded up in your child's backpack, ready to start the year on the right foot - but what about making sure your child is equipped with empathy?

Establishing strong, successful relationships and friendships are vital to your child's development and growth. "Practicing empathy is really just watering the seeds for kindness, tolerance, respect, and compassion," says Dr. Tiffany Spanier of Allegro Pediatrics. Sending your child back to school with a better understanding of these social elements can help them know what to do in bullying situations and establish a better communication connection between you and your child.

STUDY: Responding empathically to patients: Development, implementation, and evaluation of a communication skills training module for oncology nurses  

Patient-centered communication is critical to good patient care [1]. Patient-centered communication drives treatment planning through the transmission of information and provides a therapeutic and supportive environment for the patient [2–4]. Empathy is of particular importance in effective patient-centered communication [2,4–6]. A nurse’s ability to recognize patients’ empathic opportunities and respond to a patient empathically, communicating a desire to understand, can help patients understand and cope effectively with their illnesses [5–7].

The role of empathy in effective leadership

What is Empathy, and why is it Important in Leadership

Empathy is a fundamental trait of any great leader. It involves the ability to understand and feel the emotions of others. This means putting oneself in another person’s shoes, seeking to understand their experiences, and reacting with compassion and concern. A leader with empathy can build strong relationships with their team members, earn their trust, and create a positive working environment. They are also better able to communicate with their employees, understand their individual needs, and make informed decisions that cater to the team and the company. 

Empathy allows leaders to understand and appreciate their employees as unique individuals and establish healthy, collaborative relationship,

Empathetic interviewing: Could empathy restore trust in the media?

Empathetic interviewing: Could empathy restore trust in the media? | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it

By Ronnie Polaneczky
Empathy — specifically cognitive empathy — is the ability to imagine what it’s like to be in someone else’s shoes, notes British journalist Paul Bradshaw, who leads the MA in Data Journalism program at Birmingham City University and is founder of the popular Online Journalism Blog.

“It is one of the more underrated qualities of good journalists, perhaps because people often confuse it with sympathy, or with emotional empathy,” he writes. “The difference is important: It is possible to imagine what it is like to be a particular person (cognitive empathy), including criminals and corrupt officials, without feeling sorry for them (sympathy) or feeling the same way (emotional empathy).”

Empathy is as central to good reporting as persistence or curiosity, he says, because it helps journalists dig deeper into a story.

Teaching Children Empathy

Empathy is wired into our neurobiology, especially for those that we see as similar to ourselves.


We can teach children to be more empathetic through modeling and sensitive parenting.
Learning empathy can be an intentional process of tuning into the emotions of others.


Empathy is wired into our brains. We actually have cells in our brain called mirror neurons, which fire as if we are doing the same task as another person is doing, or feeling what they are feeling.

 

Do you ever cringe when you’re watching someone on TV get hurt? That’s because your mirror neurons are going wild; you feel their pain on a neurological level. Mirror neurons are also the reason that yawning is contagious. Our mirror neurons fire when we watch someone else yawn and we do the same in turn.

Is It Possible To Be Too Empathetic?

BY KRYSTLE VERMES|
Showing empathy is a skill that many people aspire to learn. By doing so, you can relate to others in their time of need. Additionally, you can strengthen your bonds with friends and family while gaining a better understanding of what it's like to be in their shoes. However, it's not uncommon to feel like you're carrying the burden of others on your shoulders if you constantly lend an ear. That being said, is it possible to be too empathetic?

Ep. 158 Empathy in Leadership with Dr. Gloria Miele

“Emotional intelligence is an important way to understand yourself, understand others, and really open yourself up to other people's perspectives and what will lead to a happier, healthier, better you,” explains Dr. Gloria Miele, executive coach, leadership trainer, facilitator and professional speaker. In addition to her work in leadership coaching, Dr. Miele was the troop leader for her daughter’s Girl Scouts troop all the way from 2nd grade through their senior year of high school.

 

All of this experience combined has proven to Dr. Miele the true value of emotional intelligence and empathy in leadership.

Employees Now Expect Empathy In The Workplace, But Half Aren’t Getting It

Employees Now Expect Empathy In The Workplace, But Half Aren’t Getting It | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it

by Kathy Caprino
In the past several years, with the deep challenges that the COVID pandemic presented, along with economic hardships, extreme demands at work and at home, workforce reductions and more, it’s become ever clearer that leaders have needed to revise the way they communicate, manage, and strategize. One of the key shifts required has been an increased focus on empathy in the workplace.

Empathetic leadership has been described as having the ability to understand the needs of others, being aware of their feelings and thoughts and communicating that understanding in respectful ways that foster an experience of belonging and trust. Empathy has also been shown to have a direct impact on encouraging motivation, commitment, engagement and innovation, as empathy supports individuals to feel safe and supported, and a part of something bigger than themselves.

Verdict: What the Google Bard replied... is meaningful

On the heels of the release of the second and significantly modified version of Heartificial Empathy, Putting Heart into Business and Artificial Intelligence (DigitalProof Press 2023), I see that the subject of AI and empathy is now everywhere. I’m speaking about it this evening to the CFA Society in Stockholm. I recently participated an Empathy Circle (EC) with Edwin Rutsch and Dr Lidewij Niezink, who cofounded the EC concept, along with Dr Shelton Davis, where we examined what’s happening and how we should approach Empathy in AI.

A tip for future nurses: remember empathetic communication –

A tip for future nurses: remember empathetic communication – | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it
The Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center created a Communication Skills and Training (CST) Module to teach just that. It first helps to understand that there are different kinds of empathy: affective (taking on the feelings of others), cognitive (understanding how the other person feels), and behavioral (acting upon that cognitive understanding). It’s easy to see how affective empathy could lead to burnout. Cognitive and behavioral empathy relies on understanding and action more than absorbing the feelings of others. 

Specific skills include acknowledging and encouraging the expression of feelings, asking open-ended questions, clarifying or restating patient comments, using praise and positivity, and endorsing questions. Rather than splattering in an array of niceties, these conversations show how invested we actually are. This builds a far more caring and approachable persona for a nurse.

The Delicate Dance of Balancing Empathy and Professionalism in HR

The Delicate Dance of Balancing Empathy and Professionalism in HR | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it
Balancing empathy and professionalism
In HR, communication is everything. Without it, people start to fill in the gaps with their own narratives — "They only care about the bottom line." An organization without healthy and transparent communication is the prime environment for gossip to thrive, especially in sensitive situations like mergers and acquisitions. Everyone has horror stories, which feed into rumors of job cuts or loss of benefits because "I know someone who went through the same thing."

But communication is very nuanced, and HR professionals must appreciate that nuance to communicate and explain with a balance of empathy and professionalism. We often must communicate strategically, giving different audiences the information they need at the right times for the most effective delivery. Otherwise, we may be backed into an uncomfortable corner or say the wrong thing.

10 Reasons Why Empathetic Leadership Matters

10 Reasons Why Empathetic Leadership Matters | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it

by Ashley Halsey

Believe it or not, most people believe that the best way to become a successful leader is to exhibit the highest IQ, or at least, appear emotionless and analytical in the face of their workforce.

Empathy will most likely won’t get a look because that might exhibit “weakness” in the workplace. In other words, the less emotion one has, the more successful he will be.

But the truth is, if you want your staff to be happier and more productive, then practicing empathy is the way to go. In fact, the best leaders are the complete opposite of emotionless and analytical. Instead, they’re empathetic, compassionate, highly sensitive, and have high emotional intelligence.

With that said, here are 10 reasons why empathetic leadership matters

The Importance Of Empathy At Work In Disturbing Times: Empathic leaders can build and develop relationships

The Importance Of Empathy At Work In Disturbing Times: Empathic leaders can build and develop relationships | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it

by Andrzej Smiech

Empathic leaders can build and develop relationships with people from diverse cultures and backgrounds, with different opinions and perceptions of reality. They can express their views in such a way as to be understood by others; they adapt their communication and argumentation about diverse audiences.

I believe empathy is the foundation for developing more complex leadership competencies, such as influence and impact, building cooperation, managing conflict, and inspiring and mentoring with a low awareness of the mechanisms affecting how the environment we are supposed to manage works.

Why Empathy is Key to Change

BEING EMPATHETIC WITH OTHERS CAN PROMOTE TRUST AND LEAD TO MORE OPEN AND HONEST RELATIONSHIPS.


You may have experienced this before — Think about the a time you were at a roadblock in your life and you shared your challenge with a friend. Was it the friend who told you the 101 ways they would have done it differently, or the friend that listened and validated your feelings that actually helped you overcome the challenge? Next time you face a challenge you’ll want to turn to the person who helped you navigate the problem using empathy.

How to Overcome the Limitations of Empathy

Empathy in love is based on our ability to identify with our partners’ experience.

Compassion and kindness are emotional investments in the well-being of partners.

Embedded in empathy is an illusion that partners' experiences and the meanings they give to them are the same.

Behavior motivated by compassion and kindness appreciates and accommodates differences.

 Cleveland Clinic: What Is Active Listening? 7 Techniques –  | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it

Why is active listening important?
Some people are better at active listening than others. And some people have to use active listening more in their day-to-day lives than others. Teachers, therapists and barbers need to be able to engage with and really hear other people all day, every day, as part of their jobs. But everybody needs these skills. Whether you’re navigating work, family, romantic or other personal relationships, being good at actively listening to others has many benefits:

Improves empathy. Some people assume empathy — the ability to understand or feel compassion for someone — is innate, that you either have it or you don’t. But over time, we’ve come to understand that — while not all people have the same capacity to empathize — it’s more like a muscle. If you don’t use it, it can atrophy. And if you overuse it, you can get empathy fatigue. Active listening requires you to practice empathy.

Fool’s Empathy and How to Avoid It

Fool’s Empathy and How to Avoid It | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it

by Peter Sear 
During my research and work on empathy with individuals, teams, and organisations, I witness a common mistake. When I point out this error a eureka expression appears on the face in front of me. It suddenly seems obvious, yet the trap is easy to fall into, and the danger of doing so is perhaps exacerbated by our haste to understand another human being’s situation.

Empathy has so much to offer us in our personal and professional endeavours. It empowers us with insight, allowing us to make better-informed decisions. All the more important, then, that we empathise as wisely and accurately as possible.
