Empathy is credited as a factor in improved relationships and even better product development. But while it’s easy to say “just put yourself in someone else’s shoes,” the reality is that understanding the motivations and emotions of others often proves elusive.
This book helps you understand what empathy is, why it’s important, how to surmount the hurdles that make you less empathetic―and when too much empathy is just too much.
