A short talk by Lori Harder emphasizing that the emotional energy and care you convey in interactions determines how people remember you and builds networks and communities. The speaker argues that leaving others feeling cared-for creates lasting positive impressions that attract further connections.
The energy that we do everything in. It's how people remember you. At the end of the day, people are people who want to work with people who make them feel good. So if you have left every person that you've encountered with just a little bit better feeling, or, like, the the feeling that you're interested in them or that people care, if we can just do one thing to leave someone with, oh, people aren't bad. They actually care. Like, even if this one person cared, they might go and look for other people who also have shown signs of caring. And when we're talking about networking and, you know, communities, like, they're going to remember that even if it's not in their brain, you're leaving, like, a cellular mark on someone. They're going to be like, I have a good feeling around that person. And they'll remember that about you.
