develop empathy

I was looking for techniques to better know myself and others. Empathy is the solution i am willing to explore with practical solutions (and not only values).

I would be very happy to hear about tips, exercices and techniques used by others.

If you are interested to hear about my personal experiences and reflections, you can have a look at www.world-of-empathy.org (work in progress…) 2 years ago

i’m not so sure how this one is going… i have been saying “i’m sorry” a lot more when i’ve hurt people’s feelings… does this count? 2 years ago

i know what it is and all and im pretty good at it. i can sense just about anything and im telepathic too so thats helpful…ive gotten to a point where my close friends have been saying what i think without me even trying to channel them or i tend to think what they’re thinking without trying to. but im not there yet…i need help, i need to know how i can develop my empathy more. 3 years ago

I’ve improved. Not to the point where I can call this “done” though.

If sympathy says “I’m sorry” and compassion says “I’ll help”, what does empathy say? “I feel your pain”? 4 years ago

empathy n. Identification with and understanding of another’s situation, feelings, and motives. See synonyms at pity.

I always thought that empathy was more the “showing” side of the understanding… is there a different word for that? I can identify and understand people’s feelings, I just am supremely awful at showing it. 4 years ago

As a result of a course in my MBA program, I decided to develop this competency, empathy. I have begun by collecting information about what it means, thats the easy part..now I’m searching how to develop it 5 years ago
