Empathy
Empathy is the ability to accurately put yourself "in someone else's shoes"– to understand the other's situation, perceptions and feelings from their point of view – and to be able to communicate that understanding back to the other person.
Empathy can be developed by learning to identify your own feelings, experiencing the major differences among people, and regularly asking others for their perspectives and feelings regarding a situation.
