Keiko Krahnke: How to Build a Culture of Empathy in Business

Keiko Krahnke is Associate Professor of Management; Business Communications at University of Northern Colorado in the Montfort College of Business.  Areas of research interests include spirituality and business, systems thinking, Appreciative Inquiry, and corporate citizenship. Currently interested in learning about human consciousness and teaching empathy and compassion.

She says, Empathy is wholeness and knowing that we are all part of one field and are interconnected. The opposite of Empathy is being trapped in narcissism.

 

Coauthor: Empathy, Connectedness and Organisation. 'In this paper, we conceptually explore the role of empathy as a connectedness organising mechanism. We expand ideas underlying positive organisational scholarship and examine leading-edge studies from neuroscience and quantum physics that give support to our claims. The perspective we propose has profound implications regarding how we organise and how we manage. First, we argue that empathy enhances connectedness through the unconscious sharing of neuro-pathways that dissolves the barriers between self and other.'

Anita Nowak: Dissertation: Pedagogy of Empathic Action as Informed by Social Entrepreneurs

In this interview, Anita Nowak talks about her PhD dissertation titled 'Introducing a Pedagogy of Empathic Action as Informed by Social Entrepreneurs.''

"I contend that our innate human empathy can be leveraged as a tool of social change through the practice of Empathic Action. Furthermore I argue that a Pedagogy of Empathic Action offers the best means by which to foster this."

The dissertation addresses five questions;

  1. What is empathy? 

  2. What is Empathic Action?  Acting on empathy for another/others.

  3. What group of individuals is already practicing Empathic Action?

  4. How might narrative inquiry interviews with such individuals inform a Pedagogy of Empathic Action? 

  5.  What are the broad strokes  of such a pedagogical approach?
