Empathy Expansion

Description

Empathy is treated as a set of skills in these ten PDF lessons. After an introduction to what empathy is, you practice active listening, perspective taking, and recognizing emotions through non-verbal cues.

Further lessons cover empathy in daily conversations, building it through curiosity, overcoming blocks and biases, and developing self-compassion. The final lessons apply empathy in relationships and at work, and help you create a personal practice plan. Every lesson includes exercises. The emphasis is on everyday practice: conversations, relationships and work. By the end you should have a plan for building empathy deliberately instead of leaving it to chance.

Who it is for: adults who want to listen better and understand other people more accurately.
