What a Year of WFH Has Done to Our Relationships at Work Apr 19, 2022

Show notes

Do you remember a time when work included informal social interactions? There’s an official name for these interactions—social capital—or the benefits you get because of the people you know. Turns out workplaces thrive on it and can lead to lower turnover, increased performance, and an easier flow of information. So what does this mean for all us in the working world including hybrid, full-time, remote work, and returning back to the office? We’re thrilled to welcome back to the podcast Tess Vigeland to discuss the changes in work relationships and some advice for what to do.
