How to Build a Culture Where Everyone Feels They Belong

20 people who would have challenged my worldview, or 20 people who would have seen the world in a different way than me, or 20 people who might have just said, I have something in my teeth. You know, like, it doesn't matter. But that idea is that we're so biologically wired to be connected to each other. And even though there's this massive amount of research that backs up the value of these social connections, I find myself having to work harder and be more conscious than ever before in my life. Even though there's amazing technology that's supposed to help alleviate this social friction, find myself having to work harder and be more conscious to create these human to human moments.
