Empathy is the core to being human and connecting with others. Without empathy you can’t truly understand what it’s like to be in someone else’s position. As we all change and adapt to our growing world of awareness, empathy takes a front row seat in whatever role you’re in. This course covers the key elements of empathy, why it's important, and how to integrate core empathy elements in your personal and professional life. In this course, we’ll take time to deep dive into four key things around empathy
