83. On Hybrid or Remote Worker? Double-Down on Work Relationships with Kathy Oneto

Are you a hybrid or remote worker? And, did you know that in today’s remote and hybrid work environments that many of us are feeling disconnected from each other?

- 72% of employees say they aren’t able to socialize enough when they’re remote (Workplace Intelligence)

- 60% of remote workers say WFH (working from home) makes them feel less connected to their colleagues (Pew Research)

That’s a problem. Why? Because having friends, relationships, and a community at work has huge benefits! That means each of us needs to be proactive in making connections and friendships at work.

In this Sustainable Ambition (SA) Quick Tip, host Kathy Oneto talks about all the benefits and offers tips on how to double down on building your work relationships.

The Takeaway: If we choose or have to work from home, over-invest in building relationships.
