Complete Your "HCDT Stage: Empathize" Reflection: 103

The empathize module allowed me to see and feel others' emotions and struggles as well as their strengths. Empath mapping was a great exercise to challenge what we hear, see, feel. We went through several empathy mapping exercises to find the common denominators with our stakeholders. It has shown me that empathy can be and should be a lens we look through no matter who we are dealing with. Our ability to empathize will allow us to understand and work toward win/win solutions.
