How to Avoid the Empathy Trap

How to Avoid the Empathy Trap | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it

Do you prioritize other people's feelings over your own? You might be falling into the "empathy trap."


Empathy is having its moment. The ability to feel what another person is feeling, from that person’s perspective, generates lots of press as the ultimate positive value and the pathway to a kinder, less violent world. Schools across the country are teaching empathy to children, and myriad books explore it from every possible angle: how to get it, why it makes you a better person, how its absence can breed evil.


Empathy is exalted by thinkers from Zen Buddhist monk Thích Nhâ’t Hąnh to British writer Roman Krznaric, who just launched an online Empathy Museum where you can virtually step into someone else’s shoes. Established scientists like primatologist Frans de Waal and developmental psychiatrist Daniel Siegel explore the deep roots of empathy in animals and its essential nature in humans.

4 Secrets To Being A More Empathetic Leader
1. Empathy is developed, not inherited.
Our genes can be highly deterministic. They influence everything from our intellectual ability and tendency toward mental illness to our hair color and height. However, when it comes to empathy and understanding, our genetic inheritance takes a distant third place to associative learning and individual upbringing. Simply put, empathy is developed, not inherited. It is not something we are born with (or without); rather, it is something we develop (or neglect).

 Beyond empathy — A compassionate approach to polarizing issues in Amherst

 Beyond empathy — A compassionate approach to polarizing issues in Amherst | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it

by   Shalini Bahl-Milne:
What gets in the way: The empathy trap

Empathy, a powerful force for good, is a double-edged sword. When we empathize with those we identify with, we risk overlooking or even demonizing those who hold opposing perspectives.

Psychologist Paul Bloom warns that empathy is limited and biased. It spotlights the pain of one group while leaving others unseen. It risks “us vs. them” thinking and simplistic solutions in a well-meaning attempt to ease suffering.

This dynamic was evident at the recent meeting. Those empathizing with Palestinians saw the resolution as an urgent moral act to halt civilian deaths. Others, aware of Israelis’ security fears, felt the resolution ignored their legitimate concerns. Attempts to broaden the discussion were met with fierce resistance.

Empathy Begins in Infancy

Empathy Begins in Infancy | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it

Author: Constanze Drewlo
Children as young as 18 months display empathic concern towards others, marking a significant milestone in early emotional and cognitive development. The research found that children’s capacity for empathic concern grows in environments where caregivers respond sensitively to their needs, highlighting the importance of social interactions in acquiring empathy.


Furthermore, empathic concern, crucial for prosocial behavior, is shown to be a learned trait rather than innate, with developmental psychology suggesting that emotional contagion in infants is a precursor to understanding and sharing the feelings of others.

Study: Empathy Travels Across Generations and Empathetic Teens Become Good Parents | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it

by Jane Kelly

In the first finding of its kind, University of Virginia researchers have discovered that empathy is passed from one generation to the next. And it all starts with moms.

“What we found was that mothers’ empathy for their teens at age 13 predicted that teen’s empathy for their friends across the adolescent years,” lead author Jessica Stern, a developmental psychologist, said. “Then, that ability to show empathy toward your friends when you’re a teenager predicts that you’ll be a more supportive parent much later on in adulthood.” 

Stern said empathy is “really important for all sorts of social relationships.”

As leaders, we must embrace this shift towards empathetic leadership to meet the evolving needs of our teams and organizations.

Empathic leadership isn't just a bonus—it's a necessity. Employees are no longer satisfied with distant, detached bosses; they yearn for leaders who understand and share their feelings.

However, this demand for empathy can be a double-edged sword for managers.

"I feel like I'm never enough," confessed one Fortune 100 executive, expressing the common sentiment that any team setback feels like a personal failure.

The relationship between Empathy and listening styles is complex: implications for doctors in training | BMC Medical Education   | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it
Background
Effective communication is the key to a successful relationship between doctors and their patients. Empathy facilitates effective communication, but physicians vary in their ability to empathize with patients. Listening styles are a potential source of this difference. We aimed to assess empathy and listening styles among medical students and whether students with certain listening styles are more empathetic.

Building Structures for Understanding
A core theme was the need for brands to genuinely understand the perspectives, challenges, and emotions of the people they serve. 

As Jade Kearney, Co-Founder and CEO of She Matters, stated, “To be an empathetic brand, you have to have some relationship to your company, to what you’re doing and to the impact that you’re creating.” 

Without that genuine understanding and connection, it becomes difficult to truly empathize with your customers. Kearney emphasized listening intently to directly grasp the pain points and unmet needs of those brands serve.

Empathy Fatigue: What Is It and How to Manage It

Empathy Fatigue: What Is It and How to Manage It | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it
What is empathy fatigue?
Empathy fatigue occurs when we relate too much to the suffering of others, causing us to feel overwhelmed and burned out. Our relationships can be affected, too. In a small 2020 study of people with high empathy, researchers found that the trait “presented as significantly impacting intrapersonal and interpersonal processes sometimes for benefit within both the professional and personal realms but often with negative impact.”

The problem isn’t necessarily that we have too much empathy, but the way we’re expressing it is a type of “overwork,” says Matt Lundquist, psychotherapist and the founder and clinical director of Tribeca Therapy. If a friend is going through something difficult, that overexpression of empathy might make us think, “I ought to feel all of the intensity of this excruciating experience along with them,” says Lundquist.

Frans de Waal, who explored empathy among apes, dies at 75 - The | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it
Frans de Waal was just starting his career in primate research in the mid-1970s when he watched a male chimpanzee aggressively confront another at a zoo enclosure in the Netherlands. Awhile later, the chimp calmed down and held his palm up, a gesture of reconciliation. The two chimps hugged.

The moment sparked a lifetime exploration, probing the inner lives of chimps, apes and other species for evidence of empathy, morality and sentient awareness — traits long assumed to exist at high levels only in humans. In other words, Dr. de Waal often said, we are not so special.

This year’s conference theme was “Empathy: What Does it Mean to Walk in Someone Else’s Shoes in America?” The day-long event featured discussions of empathy in various forms, such as an academic paper panel, creative fiction reading and a roundtable about the importance of empathy in education.

“We felt that empathy was a particularly timely theme. It’s an election year. We as a country are in a very polarized spot,” Ross said. “[Empathy] is a lot more complicated than it’s often portrayed as… but it kind of comes with a lot of baggage that doesn’t get talked about as much. So this is also a space to talk about that.”

Is Your Empathy for Others Blocking Your Own Emotions and Needs? | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it
Don’t get me wrong, I love empathy. In fact, not having full empathy is the hallmark of the toxic personality. It’s a healthy way we relate to other humans. Most people have both affective, or “felt” empathy, in addition to “understanding,” or cognitive empathy. Narcissists and their ilk generally only have cognitive empathy, if they have any at all.

In fact, most of us probably assume finding ourselves attached to a narcissist is one of the worst things that could happen to us. We've all heard the horror stories.

Conversely, an empathetic person is someone we might be drawn to. Who wouldn't want to spend time with someone who can truly understand and relate to our experiences and feelings?
