Empathy: The Southwest Airline Advertisement
In terms of empathy, I believe the Southwest Airline advertisement portrays this when explaining their solution to a problem many of their customer's experience. Due to customers having different levels of income there may be individuals who are unable to pay the amount one customer is able to, so they invented an airline service called low fare that "allows everyone to fly.” In doing this Southwest Airlines is showing care and concern for each and every one of their

    The easiest way to figure out who a company is targeting is to look at who their advertisements and commercials are aimed at. Chick-fil-An is based on what they allude to as "family qualities," and that is whom they target intensely. Several locations offer an indoor play area for kids and regularly Chick-fil-A's will have a mascot there on certain days to stroll around and take pictures with children. One exceptional characteristic of Chick-fil-A restaurants is their inclusion in their surrounding communities. For example, the Chick-fil-A in Oxford, MS put on a "Princess Ball" occasion at which fathers and little girls could have a night out on the town. Many Chick-fil-A's hold "Child's Nights" where kids come in and make craft and receive…

    Out of the many appeals that companies use to advertise their product or service, the need to achieve is one of the most commonly seen. In our highly competitive society, everybody is trying to get ahead. Everybody is looking for that little advantage that will push them forward. The appeal of achievement correlates with success and winning, ideas that represent the outcomes of hard work on which people like to pride themselves. In many of their ads, Geico likes to tap into our competitive nature by offering us incentives, such as saving time and money, which speak specifically to our consumer culture. Such a tactic proves to be effective because for the most part, consumers in our ambitious society like to be frugal and fiscally responsible. Nobody wants to spend an extra dime if they do not have to. Simultaneously, customers do not want to spend all day looking for the perfect insurance. They know that time is a finite resource and it must be spent wisely. In order to persuade customer’s into buying their insurance, Geico effectively utilizes the achievement appeal because it resonates with their goals of saving time and money.…

    We watched a video clip of Carl Rogers where he is describing and explaining what understanding empathy means to him. From this clip, I learnt quite a lot and I definitely feel that I understanding the meaning of empathy more. To be empathic to a client, you must understand the position they’re in by trying to put yourself in their shoes. You can do this by asking them questions in order for you to understand. If you don’t ask questions then you will automatically make assumptions. I’ve learnt that trying to put yourself into someone else’s world is a key element to empathy and unless you actively listen, you are not going to be able to respond empathically.…

    You can’t just open a book and judge the story on the random chapter you happened to end up on, you start from the beginning and read the full story. Empathy is just like that. Empathy is like reading someone else’s story: being one with the characters and events and feeling the emotions of the main character, observing, listening, and understanding. When you read someone’s story is when the solution of racism and prejudices within communities is really possible. In the novel To Kill a Mockingbird the author, Harper Lee, shows empathy is the solution to the prejudice and racism that has unfortunately afflicted America throughout its history. These characters include Scout, Atticus, Miss Caroline, Boo…

    In this chapter, Singer states that altruists are moved by reason and not empathy. However, I argue that empathy is needed to first comprehend the problem through the eyes of those who are oppressed. Only after understanding the real essence of an issue can reason be applied to work for the best course of action. In short, empathy is just as important as reason. In relation to my life, have I been showing empathy to others? Unfortunately, I admit that I have not done my best to truly grasp the hardships that many people are experiencing. In fact, I cannot even empathize with the people in my own…

    Essay On Empathy

    • 1307 Words
    • 6 Pages

    According to the dictionary, empathy is defined as “the understanding of another’s situation, feelings, and motives”. I find it difficult to understand that a person could lack such consideration and compassion for another living creature, but, clearly, I have seen otherwise. On many occasions, I have witnessed disconcerting behavior both aimed at myself, or other individuals and have questioned the our society's complacent moral standards. For as long as I can remember, my ability to treat others with kindness has been second nature, and a vital part in my moral practices and beliefs. Faced with many challenges during my childhood, my empathetic disposition was not only enhanced, but, undoubtedly, the strongest building block in my ethical…

    The Building Empathy in Healthcare article mentions a couple of reasons of the importance of empathy. Empathy helps build trust and increases patient compliance, as a result, patients have better recovery rates. According to a research study, doctors provide better service when their patients fully verbalize their emotional concerns (Killam, 2014). It is no secret that being a doctor is a stressful job; however, health providers and even patients can help physicians physically recharge through burnouts. In order to ensure that we are truly empathetic towards patients, we must remember where we came from. Before a person becomes a health provider they had to go through certain training and practices to reach their job position. The best way to include empathy is to remember that at some point in time we were patients; put ourselves in the patient's shoes. We have all experienced similar experiences, and everyone goes through problems, no matter how big or small the issues are. Healthcare professionals need to teach their students and remind them how effective empathy can be; not only for the patients but everyone who is part of the healthcare system. Reinforcing empathy to our daily healthcare practices will most definitely make a difference to many lives, including…
