Asking people about sources of #resiliencein recent times during several studies, @FastCompany heard a chorus of the same sentiment: “friends.”
Apparently, having a friend you see every day at work = the joy of receiving a $100,000 raise, according to an @theatlanticarticle we saw in a @shiftthework newsletter.
Since we can’t always curate the people we work with, how might we help ourselves more authentically connect and support each other?
@FastCompany has these tips for what to reflect on when you’re feeling emotionally disconnected from your team, focused on the 5 main points of #connection:
? Connection to Self – Am I clear on my purpose and priorities?
? Connection to Manager – Do I know, without a doubt, that my manager has my back, and do I have theirs? Do I feel psychologically safe?
? Connection to Company – Can I see the direct connection between what I do every day and the impact my work has on our bigger picture and mission?
? Connection to Peers – Do I know my colleagues at deeper levels than what’s at the surface? Do I feel that we are all in this together and committed to the same values and outcomes?
? Connection to Work – Am I inspired to consistently contribute at the highest levels of performance? Do I perform in a way that is consistent with that inspiration?
