The Disconnect in a Connected World

Prioritize Connection with CARE

Concern
Ask
Relate
Empower

  • Concern : Show genuine interest in the people around you.
  • Ask : Use open-ended questions and listen more than you speak.
  • Relate : Be present and available. Walk around, talk with your team, and show them you are approachable. These small gestures can spark innovation and build trust.
  • Empower : Give others the freedom to make decisions and take risks. If they stumble, use the opportunity to teach and guide, not criticize.
