Doors open at 9:00; Presentation at 9:30
Ticket Price: $15 (includes copy of Applied Empathy)

Applied Empathy is a design thinking methodology developed by Michael Ventura, founder and CEO of Sub Rosa; a strategy and design firm based in New York's West Village. Attendees of this session will learn about Michael’s methodology which leverages the true power of empathy as a perspective taking tool, rather than being conflated with simply "being nice." 

During this two hour workshop Michael will dive into the core elements of this methodology and guide participants through several exercises calibrated to provide actionable access points into this systems-thinking framework. Michael’s framework has not only been successful for developing innovative solutions to client challenges, but also to improve intra-team communication and cohesion. 

Participants will receive a signed copy of Business Insider Best Book Applied Empathy. 

"With Applied Empathy, Michael Ventura shows us how to unlock our ability to design solutions, spark innovation, and solve tough challenges with empathy at the center."—Arianna Huffington
