Stoic Empathy: The Synergy of Compassion and Resilience | Shermin Kruse | TEDxOshkosh

Stoic empathy might seem like a paradox—combining the rigidity of stoicism with the compassion of empathy. In reality, however, they’re not opposing forces but symbiotic companions on the journey of self-discovery and influence. Used together, they are guiding principles that become the bedrock of personal empowerment and societal change. This talk navigates combining the fortitude and inner control of stoicism with the deep understanding and connection fostered by empathy, to build a transformative framework that help us discern what is within our control, to modulate our emotions, and to act ethically at all times. Shermin Kruse is an author, global transactions expert, lawyer, board advisor, speaker, professor, TEDx producer, and idea curator. She currently teaches global transactions, tactical empathy, complex negotiation, and leadership at Northwestern Pritzker School of Law. She is the author of the textbook Global Transactions and Regulation: Political, Legal, and Cultural Frameworks, published by Northwestern University Library, which examines current and relevant business, legal, regulatory, and ethical issues arising from commercial transactions across national borders. In addition to her teaching and corporate negotiations experience, Shermin was a partner at the law firm of Barack Ferrazzano, where she represented international and Fortune 500 companies for 17 years. Her nearly two-decade-long legal practice provided her with in-depth knowledge of corporate business management, high-stakes negotiations, and complex cross-border transactions. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
