The gift of friendship and connecting meaningfully at work

- Remember the exhilaration as a kid of declaring, I made a friend. The ease of creating that bond was natural. Things just clicked. Fast forward to today and one of the universal truths of being an adult is that friendships don't just happen on their own. That's true in the office and especially in more remote work environments, but here's the thing. Making meaningful friendships is something you can learn and cultivate and the payoff, it's huge. Friends boost our sense of belonging, purpose, and happiness and they lower our stress. I'm Selena Rezvani, leadership speaker and author. I've trained thousands of professionals on leveling up their interpersonal skills, forming lasting high trust connections with others and I'll teach you how to do it too. In this course, we'll explore simple, usable best practices for forging new friendships. And we'll walk through what not to do in tricky situations. That way you navigate friendships in a way that maintains your positive personal brand. These techniques apply whether you're managing a friendship over a screen or at the board table. So join me in making meaningful connections in your life because even as adults, nothing is quite as daunting when you have a friend by your side.
