The Power of Making Connecting a Priority
The pandemic has made it easy to feel disconnected. Here's what we're doing to stay connected.
Show Notes:
Questions we cover in this week's episode:
- Is connecting on social media the same as connecting offline?
- What benefit am I getting from social media? How can I be more purposeful?
- What about a daily phone call instead of a daily post?
- What are some ways to connect offline?
- How to set up a ‘connection exchange’.
- Is time spent connecting ‘work’?
At the end of the episode I warp things up with 3 tips we recommend to help you feel more connected through this time:
- Unscheduled commute or walk and talk time.
- Weekly scheduled calls and catch ups instead of leaving to chance.
- Instead of posting on social media, reach out personally.
