Understanding Empathy: How EQ Can Improve Your Career Impact

Understanding Empathy: How EQ Can Improve Your Career Impact | Teaching Empathy | Scoop.it
Can you run out of empathy? According to Psychology Today, individuals facing consistent trauma (in other words: people living through the pandemic) can find themselves facing “compassion fatigue”. Worn out and running on empty, many are feeling the effects of extensive burnout.

 

That short fuse shows up in a lack of consideration for others. While many regard empathy as a soft skill, true leaders see the power inside of deeper understanding - and deeply value the ability to continually access empathy, now more than ever. Because, at its core, empathy is about understanding: being able to see the world from another person’s viewpoint.

 

Without that ability, teams break down. Leaders lose respect. Individuals are not recognized, and potentials go unrealized. Especially now, as the pandemic pushes into its 11th month, empathy is in short supply. Here’s how to access a deeper understanding around empathy, and access EQ (emotional intelligence) during a time when your organization needs it most.

Meeting Registration - Zoom

The Mahoney Family Fund presents a webinar, “The Power of Empathy: Reduce Stress, Improve Communication, Build Better Relationships”

Stress is alarmingly pervasive in daily life. We all need tools to deal with tension in healthy and productive ways. In this webinar, with Keynote Speaker Koa Goode, we’ll explore the lasting benefits of learning to walk a while in someone else’s shoes, of exercising compassion in our interactions with others. This is especially important with family members, including our children. It’s easy to forget that kids have a wide range of feelings and stressors, just like adults. Understanding developmental milestones from infants to teens helps us as parents, teachers and caregivers to create nurturing relationships with children.

8 Week Series: Empathic Listening 

8 Week Series: Empathic Listening  | Teaching Empathy | Scoop.it
Topics for the course:
What does it really mean to listen with empathy?
Practice putting on new ears and learning to listen for feelings and needs. See how much easier it is to not take things personally when you can listen for the feelings and needs behind what someone is saying.

You will be introduced to the definition of empathy in the framework of Mindful Compassionate Dialogue. You will learn 12 essential aspects of empathy and how to identify what is often confused with empathy. You will have an opportunity to name what gets in your way of offering empathy.

Building a vocabulary for empathy
Part of learning to give and receive empathy is learning a vocabulary. You will learn some common "faux feelings" that can lead empathy astray into blame and shame. You will engage in exercises to help you learn the list of universal needs as a living language rather than a concept.

Why Empathy Matters More Than Ever

The cornerstone of good leadership is empathy, which has become even more critical during the past year. During this uncertain time, we focused on listening to the team and addressing their concerns. We provided clear and consistent communication throughout the pandemic, and we were pleased to find that our internal employee engagement scores increased. Many factors played a role, but empathy and communication were essential.

What Is Compassion Fatigue?

What Is Compassion Fatigue? | Teaching Empathy | Scoop.it

The Middlesex County Office of Health Services in New Jersey hosted a free online seminar on overcoming compassion fatigue a few months back.

 

It invited first responders and frontline workers to sign up to hear about ways to cope with burnout after a year and a half of caring for others in the face of a pandemic — and to learn about how any reduction in empathy that they may be feeling is completely normal. And you don’t have to be a healthcare worker to be undergoing these effects.

Survey Finds Empathy Boosts Productivity: How Do We Develop It?

Survey Finds Empathy Boosts Productivity: How Do We Develop It? | Teaching Empathy | Scoop.it

Over the last 18 months, there’s been a buzzword bouncing around leadership circles: empathy.

Senior executives want more of it from their managers, employees want more of it from their companies. And a survey out today from Catalyst shows there’s a big business benefit from developing it.

Empathy is no longer a “feel-good” element of leadership, but a strategic imperative finds the Catalyst survey, which interviewed 900 US employees working across industries. Tara Van Bommel, PhD, statistician at Catalyst, said, “We found that empathy is an important driver of employee outcomes such as innovation, engagement, and inclusion—especially in times of crisis. In short, empathy is a must-have in today’s workplace.”

About this event

Empathy is the foundation for connecting with others, and connecting with others is an essential part of entrepreneurship.

In this workshop, participants will

  • Explore the concepts of empathy, sympathy, and vulnerability and their connection to their work and personal lives.
  • Examine and practice ways to build their empathy skills through small group story sharing.
  • Connect and reflect on the experience of having (or not having) privilege and investigate/discuss what groups may have limited access to what privileges and effects that lack of access may have on an individual.

 

Facilitators:

Ryan Driscoll (he/him) has spent over ten years working in formal and informal science education with a focus on environmental justice, youth development, and community conservation. Through this work, he has had the opportunity to see first-hand how empathy can help people connect across differences and also connect to non-human beings. A self-described JEDI (Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion) Knight, he has a passion for helping others develop their skills and talents while working to dismantle inequitable systems. His most recent work has focused around mentoring graduate students in co-creating community conservation programs and facilitating workshops focused on empathy and inclusion.

 

Kevin Shah (he/him) A.K.A. Captain Empathy, is focused on creating a world where people seek to understand one another by making empathy a daily habit. He believes empathy is the superpower we all can learn and become superheroes. He comes from the intersectionality of tech product leadership and Empathy and safe spaces facilitator to create the world’s first and only Empathy Gym platform called Jaago to build the empathy muscles. He is the CEO and Co-Founder of Jaago and also works at T-Mobile to build IOT products for families with T-Mobile. Jaago’s mission is to create a world where people seek to understand one another by making empathy a daily habit.

Empathy as presence – online and in shared physical space –

Empathy as presence – online and in shared physical space – | Teaching Empathy | Scoop.it
Speaking personally, in my own work on empathy, published in 2015, the same year as Isaacs Russell’s book, my Preface concludes with the ontological definition of empathy as “being in the presence of another human being without anything else added” – anything else such as judgment, evaluation, memory, desire, hostility, and the many factors that make us unavailable to be in relationship (Agosta 2015; see also 2010).

 

Though Isaacs Russell uses the word “empathy” in a specific psychological sense, I would argue that her work on “presence” is consistent with and contributes to an enlarged sense of empathic relatedness that builds community.

How do you scale empathy?

How do you scale empathy? | Teaching Empathy | Scoop.it

With an "Empathy Gym"!

I believe that empathy is the superpower that can help solve the biggest problems humanity is facing. These problems are at the scale where individual solutions aren’t enough. These are global climate change, hunger, poverty, and homelessness. I call these problems community or humanity uniting problems. However, our communities are experiencing increasing polarization, and even the reality of the problem is up for debate. The interest of the individuals is being weighed on the same scale as the survival of humanity.
