We all think we that we communicate clearly but many of us are routinely disappointed when misunderstanding becomes evident.

This session will let us explore how we create and resolve misunderstanding using the Empathy Toy - a simple yet remarkable experience that Time magazine says is "Shaping the future of classrooms"

Participants will leave the session with:
A clearer understanding of empathy and how it can serves us as product developers,
Insight into more effective communication practices that promote shared understanding
Awareness of patterns that get in the way of being understood
