In-Groups and Empathy
from Lead Forward · host Andy Thompson
It's well-established that we tend to be more empathetic to people who we see as being "like us" or as part of our group. But in the world of work (and in the world in general) it's critically important to have empathy for people in other groups and people who are different from us in one way or another. Understanding the difference between cognitive empathy and emotional empathy can help us start to understand how to bridge the gap.
