Teens today are forty percent less empathetic than they were thirty years ago. Why is a lack of empathy so dangerous? It hurts academic performance, leads to bullying and can correlate with cheating and less resilience. Once children grow up, a lack of empathy hampers their ability to collaborate, innovate, and problem-solve—all must-have skills for the global economy. In Unselfie Dr. Borba shares a revolutionary, researched-based, nine-step plan for reversing it. Q&A to follow.
