Back to Human: Connecting in the Age of Isolation

Description:

Technology has impacted our workplaces in ways that weren’t possible a decade ago. We feel “highly connected.” But are we, really? Instead of strong bonds, we have weak ties. Instead of productive meetings, we have distractions. Despite the illusion of 24/7 connection, in reality, most workers feel isolated from their colleagues, their organization and its leaders. What they crave most—and what research increasingly shows to be the hallmark of the highest-performing workplace cultures—is a sense of authentic connection with others. They want to get Back to Human. Through an intimate discussion with top young leaders from IBM, Verizon and American Airlines, New York Times bestselling author Dan Schawbel shows you you how to create more human connection in the age of isolation.
