Misty Riedel · Answer

How valuable communication, connection, and collaboration are!!!

I do not exclude myself from these thoughts- I am concerned because social media connections and the ability to form relationships without the interpersonal part of those relationships has been altering our abilities to interact, exchange ideas in conversations, and read body and facial communication.  I see it most in the younger people I work with- most likely because many of our teens and young adult sin the workforce have been technologically engaged from a very young age.

What are some thoughts about how we can encourage and support each other to polish our skills and not lose the face-to-face skills we currently have?

We cannot cheat ourselves and our next generation of the workforce thinking that networking is a long friend list, a huge Rolodex, or  a number of followers.
