Real Connection in an AI World: Your Team Still Feels Burnt Out
I’ll be honest, I’m getting tired of everything technology and social media.
The amount of AI at every turn feels exhausting.
I know I’m not the first person to say it.
But my fatigue comes from trying to decipher who is real and who isn’t.
I CARE about returning a message to a real person.
I DO NOT mind leaving a bot on read.
In my work with teams and groups I’d estimate that people’s sense of fatigue, burnout and stress seem to match around a year into the pandemic.
People feel TIRED.
Navigating this new world where verifying fake videos, fake conversations, fake news takes an extra level of effort can feel exhausting.
People still crave connection. But it’s so much more difficult to find REAL connection.
When real connection happens, that’s when people feel calm. Their motivation returns. They feel inspired by those around them.
It’s so much faster to get answers these days with Ai at our fingertips.
But please remember, for the well-being of your staff, they still need to connect.
Lack of connection continues to be a huge contributor to our malaise.
Connection – meaningful connection – can be the solution.
