Empathy Map

How do I empathize with people?

Nowadays anyone can create their own business from home, this is something very common lately but, not many people succeed, there are very clear examples such as the man in the corner who sells dogs, or the lady who sells ice cream. It is very normal for many people to be more successful than others even selling the same product as the other, but this is because these people knew how to connect with people and knew what attracts them the most. There is a tool that facilitates all the work of making various startup attempts for our business, it is a tool that helps us to connect with people and their needs, the "Empathy Map".

The empathy map is a graphic tool used to better identify our target audience. The aim of the empathy map is to create a degree of empathy with our specific client, knowing their environment, in other words looking at the world through their eyes.

In order to know what to do, the emphaty map answers the following questions:


  • What does the customer want?
  • What forces motivate you?
  • What can we do for these clients?
  • Who are they really?


To achieve this, the map proposes six different areas that are detailed below:

 HEAR - What is the person hearing from his friends, partner, colleagues, etc.? Who really influences you? How do they do that?

 SEE- What surrounds you? What type of offer are you exposed to? What kind of problems do you face?

 FEEL AND THINK - What emotions does the person express? What really matters to you? What are your expectations? Be aware of your beliefs, emotions that cannot be directly observed. Pay attention to your body language, tone of voice, and the words you choose.

 SAY AND DO - What could you say to others? What is your attitude in public? Does it influence someone?

 WHAT DOES IT HURT OR FRUST YOU? - What are your main frustrations? What risks are you concerned about? What are your obstacles?

 WHAT MOTIVATES IT? - What do you really want to achieve? How do you define success? How do you try to achieve it?

See you next time !!!

Activity Theory

Activity Theory In this case, we will talk a little more about the resources that we will use to manage a project that we want to use, be it a product that we want to sell or a change proposal. Activity theory is a tool that helps us collect information at home aspect of our project, it is more a meta-theory than a predictive theory. This considers the entire work / activity system (including teams, organizations, etc.), in other words it does not focus only on the person, but also on your own team and the environment that is managed. I like to think of this tool as something more realistic for our project since I feel that it is more complete because it takes ourselves into account. The activity theory is represented by a triangle which contains the following: This triangle can be managed on 3 levels: Activity towards a goal (goal) carried out by a community. A result of a reason (need) that may not be aware of the social and personal meaning of the activity (Answer the quest...

Lean Canvas

Bussines? The Lean Canvas is based on the Business Model Canvas designed by Alex Osterwalder. Thanks to Ash Maurya we can enjoy a specific adaptation of the business model canvas for entrepreneurs who are working on their business idea when launching their own startup. As we explained in the Business Model Canvas post, that canvas is divided into two parts (the right part talks about the market, and the left part refers to the company). In this case, the Lean Canvas has a more practical division for those who are looking for an innovative and viable business model. The right part continues to reflect the environment (market) but the left part helps you reflect on your product / service. As you can see, the approach has points in common, but with some important subtleties. Below I explain more fully what are the adaptations of the Lean Canvas blocks with respect to the traditional Canvas or Osterwalder Canvas: Customer segment:  In the case of entrepreneurs...

The art of thinking

Since we were born we have been in constant physical development, we become fat, we become thin, we grow, etc., but in the same way we have a mental development that is constant, as time goes by we learn more and more to the point where we reason, where we characterize a very important thing, our thinking, our way of thinking. This is not something new, since our ancestors this was already exercised, we simply had not thought clearly what exactly we think and why and how we came to that thought, well, let me explain that there is an answer for all this since there are several types of thinking which we use without realizing it, they are very important, therefore, I will explain a little more about them. What are the Thinking Skills? Well, the thinking skills are the mental processes that allow people to process any type of information, gain knowledge and solve problems. These skills are important because they allow the human being to think and act in a generalized way, as well as t...
