Split into three steps
In business, there are three levels of empathy. The first is "on-demand" empathy, which is the ability to sense what customers want. The second is "solution" empathy, which entails understanding a customer's problem and figuring out how to address it. The third is "transcendent" empathy where you create solutions to problems that customers don't even know that they have. — Geoffrey James, INC

Or where one content object fits with other content and how they are connected to the customer experience. -‐Lee Odden
