Culture of Empathy Builder:  Rob Volpe

Defining Empathy

Rob Volpe

Rob Volpe is a marketing professional and researcher and provides companies with a heightened empathy toward their customers that enables more effective ways to communicate with them.  He is author of 'Tell Me More About That: Solving the Empathy Crisis One Conversation at a Time'.  Rob draws on his thousands of interviews with everyday people to illustrate the 5 Steps to Empathy -- actions you can use to build a reflexive empathy muscle. In this conversation we solve (or try to) the empathy crisis by taking  a deep dive into the definition of empathy.


 5 Steps to Empathy

Step 1: Dismantle Judgment

Step 2: Ask Good Questions

Step 3: Actively Listen

Step 4: Integrate into Understanding

Step 5: Use Solution Imagination
