TEAM BUILDING

Each card has a series of reflective questions: by matching character and situation, the team will have to put themselves in the character's shoes, answer the questions and agree on a solution based on empathy and respect, to avoid unwanted loneliness.

What are empathy and active listening?

Empathy is the ability to understand another person's emotions, even if they are not shared. It is defined as the ability to put yourself in someone else's shoes and understand how they feel in a given situation.

Active or empathetic listening is when you listen to understand the other person, focusing your attention on them.
