Paperback. Condition: Good. Michael Ventura, entrepreneur and CEO of award-winning strategy and design firm Sub Rosa, shares "how to unlock our ability to design solutions, spark innovation, and solve tough challenges with empathy at the center" (Arianna Huffington). Having built his career working with iconic brands and institutions such as General Electric, Google, Nike, Warby Parker, and also The United Nations and the Obama Administration, Michael Ventura offers entrepreneurs and executives a radical new business book and way forward. Empathy is not about being nice. It's not about pity or sympathy either. It's about understanding--your consumers, your colleagues, and yourself--and it's a direct path to powerful leadership. As such, Applied Empathy presents real strategies, based on Sub Rosa's design work and the popular class Ventura and his team have taught at Princeton University, on how to make lasting connections and evolve your business internally (your employees, culture, and product/services) as well as externally (your brand, consumers, and value).

If you want to connect to the people you work with, you have to understand them first.…
