The Empathy Effect: Seven Neuroscience-Based Keys for Transforming the Way We Live, Love, Work, and Connect Across Differences by Helen Riess, Liz Neporent
4.0
I mainly read this book because I have been hearing about empathy for ages and I wanted to learn more about it.
As the title promises, the author shares research backed and business proven empathy code. The seven ways to become a more empathetic person are all simple techniques that make total sense and are worth learning about. The handy acronym EMPATHY makes it easy to remember and therefore apply.
The thing that stood out for me (and probably the most important lesson I will take out of this book) is the difference between sympathy and empathy as well as the importance of 'Your Response' while being empathetic.
An easy 3.5 stars from me.
I received a free copy from Netgalley. This doesn't affect my review in any way.
