Empathy and the power of recognition

Half of all projects fail because too lit­tle pro­fes­sion­al atten­tion is paid to the inter­per­son­al. This is sur­pris­ing, because empa­thy is one of the ​“mag­ic words” of our time. Many peo­ple think that if they can under­stand anoth­er per­son­’s per­spec­tive, that is empath­ic. Above all, empa­thy means being able to par­tic­i­pate in anoth­er per­son­’s feel­ings and moods. This emo­tion­al intel­li­gence can be trained.
