Life in the Fast Lane

We are living distracted lives.

Raise your hand if you have observed people doing any of the following:

  • Colliding with others while looking at a phone
  • Not driving when the light turns green
  • Playing games on handheld devices at professional events
  • Not noticing when arriving at the front of a line at a shop

Why is it some people seem to effortlessly persuade and move an audience, while others find it almost impossible? What defines the mystery of connection? That mystery has been a subject of fascination for me for most of my life… and it remains a mystery still. And yet, by spending many years trying to crack the code of connection I’ve observed several things that are consistent.

So, you think that when you reach your place of business on a given day that you are safe from the myriad of issues lurking in your peers’ personal lives?  Guess again. 

One of the most problematic (yet also fascinating) things that can happen in the business/office environment is how much that environment can mimic the home life of the staff.  This of course means that all the dramas, strife, and rivalries between family members that exist in people’s home lives (past & present) can permeate the business space as well.
