from BITEradio.me · host Robert Sharpe
Tell Me More About That: Solving the Empathy Crisis One Conversation at a Time with Rob Volpe Empathy is in short supply these days―and it's hurting us. From the rise in workplace bullying to increased anxiety and depression, a lack of empathy for one another is wearing away at the gears of society, grinding us down to the nubs. The very technology that is supposed to keep us connected is driving us apart, with face-to-face interactions on the decline, and news filtered through an echo chamber that shelters us from other points of view. Rob Volpe is a thought leader in the role of empathy in marketing and the workplace. As CEO of Ignite 360, he leads a team of insights, strategy, and creative professionals serving the world’s leading brands across a range of industries. A graduate of Syracuse University’s S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications, Rob has been studying empathy since 2010 when the University of Michigan study came out showcasing the empathy crisis.
