Empathy Booster Platform
Employees are the most essential asset for companies. Yet, many corporates fail to provide a safe and tolerant environment for their workers, nor an environment that answers the Diversity and Inclusion values and standards of the 21st century. Such a problem leads to dissatisfactory retention rates, employee turnover and high attrition which affects employees’ engagement and productivity.
We solve this problem
OtheReality takes advantage of VR technology's most compelling feature: the ability to boost empathy by allowing the user to ‘walk a mile’ in someone else's shoes. Our solutions' innovative use of short VR first-person POV clips, creates a powerful psychological impact, allowing the viewer to empathize with the other side in numerous situations and environments. Thus, we promote Diversity & Inclusion in corporates, establish a healthier & wealthier organization, and support workforce emotional wellbeing through empathy journeys.
