Case study based questions
“The concept of empathy and consideration in Japanese culture is called ‘omoiyari.’ Omoiyari is the sympathy and empathy for others that leads to thoughtful action. The key points are anticipating someone’s needs and providing for them in advance. To practice omoiyari, you have to think by putting yourself in the other’s shoes and give them what they need without verbally expressing it to you. Omoiyari is not always about doing something. Sometimes, not doing or saying something is also omoiyari. That is why this concept is related to ‘kuuki wo yomu’ or ‘reading the room.’ If you can read the situation, you must understand what to do and what not to do to accommodate someone’s needs. The practice of omoiyari can be found in daily occurrences in Japanese society. It’s not about superiors helping people beneath them, but voluntary help to anyone in need. Omoiyari, along with other characters, is taught to children from an early age.”
