Work can be a lonely place, with people experiencing isolation and anxiety. Some of us have added stress from family responsibilities, mental and physical health challenges, or addiction and recovery.
Yet each of us can approach others with care — showing up to meet our coworkers where they are. We care because it is necessary, not because we are looking to be acknowledged, expect anything in return, or want to change others. Care opens the possibility of building meaningful connections, allowing us to transcend workplace difficulties so we can focus on our work.
In caring for ourselves, we find ways to ask for help when we need it (and not because we want someone else to do our work for us). With perspective and — for some of us — with spiritual and/or faith practices, we find a sense of calm and maintain balance, avoiding extreme thinking and actions that undermine our well-being.
Join Amy Newman and Christina McDowell from Cornell’s SC Johnson College of Business for an enlightening Keynote on creating a more compassionate workplace through intentional communication and connection. You’ll discover valuable strategies for approaching work relationships with care while maintaining personal balance, empowering you to navigate professional challenges with greater ease and understanding.
