Got empathy? Apparently, it's trending. And it’s not just for actors anymore.
It is an actor's job to bring empathy to the stage and screen.
We are required to show up with the skills, willingness, and capacity to walk around in another's shoes. Fully imagining how a character moves through the world and bringing that role to life is one of the coolest and most exhilarating things about being an actor. Bringing empathy into the room is the least we are expected to do.
I will go out on a limb here and suggest it is the least our leaders ought to be expected to do too. More empathy makes us better humans. At work. At home. In life.
