Title: Stop the Drama and Do the Work / An Introduction to the Drama Triangle
Featured: Ed Muzio, CEO of Group Harmonics / Diana Chapman, Founding Member of The Conscious Leadership Group Publication Date: 2009 / 2014 Summary: Muzio and Chapman review the basic positions within Karpman's Drama Triangle. Dr. Karpman's framework explains drama through through people falling into one of three roles: the victim, the villain, or the hero. Do you find yourself blaming others for your problems? Do you have a strong need to leap in to save people when they relate their problems? Do you get your meaning through challenging other people?
Compassion (n.) - Compassion is being able to put yourself in the shoes of the other person. It says that you are not separate, that the other person is you. Compassion links the suffering in the person across from you directly to your own suffering. It is a link and a bond. It brings people closer together as equals and does not shove them apart or put one person above another.
Pity (n.) - Pity says that you acknowledge another person's pain but you still feel separate. With pity, you cannot see how your own suffering is linked to the suffering in the other person. The other person seems unfortunate and separate. Pity puts one person above another.
