You Have 1,000 Friends Online and No One to Call | Dan Schawbel
HUMAN CONNECTION IS THE MOST POWERFUL.
We have thousands of “friends” on social media.
But how many people could you actually call in a time of need?
Technology is becoming a larger and larger part of our life, but it’s causing us to be more isolated.
We have to work hard to continue to build actual human connections.
Otherwise, life has no meaning.
On today’s episode of The School of Greatness, I talk about all the ways that technology is affecting us in the workplace with a friend who has done tons of research on the subject: Dan Schawbel.
Dan Schawbel is a New York Times bestselling author, serial entrepreneur, Fortune 500 consultant, TV personality, keynote speaker, career and workplace expert & startup advisor. His mission in life is to support his generation from student to CEO.
Dan says that we have to use technology to create more face-to-face interactions.
The more people form relationships at work, the more collaborative and happy they will be.
