In the age of coronavirus, the necessity of remote work and social distancing have increased the lack of human connection at work. More than 60 percent of Americans are feeling lonely and one-third of Americans show signs of clinical anxiety or depression amid the pandemic. Only 30 percent of people report that they have a best friend at work, and 10 percent say they have zero friends in the workplace; even though data shows that employees who have a best friend at work are 7 times more engaged with their work. How do we stay connected and engaged in these uncertain and challenging times? How do we re-imagine company culture when we’re not at the office together, and foster workforce belonging as we’re spending more and more time connecting via technology and social media? How do we solve the growing loneliness epidemic in our companies and across the world?
In this inspiring and highly relevant virtual presentation, author and millennial workplace expert Adam Smiley Poswolsky will share how we can increase human connection, inspire creativity, and create more belonging, by building supportive communities inside the workplace. Smiley will help employees discover how they can best show up for their colleagues (and customers) in these uncertain times, and tangible ways to make remote work feel more human and more connected. We’ll discuss how to stay engaged in the digital age, and how this challenging time of uncertainty can also be an opportunity for learning, leadership development, and personal growth. Smiley will share practical strategies to help you re-imagine a collaborative, inclusive, purpose-driven remote work culture, that empowers everyone on your team.
