Turn breaks into informal social time.
When you’re feeling behind on tasks and pressed against deadlines, catching up with and connecting with colleagues is about the last thing you feel like doing. You just want to put your head down, check off tasks on your to-do list, and get things done.
So how do you make time for people without feeling more stressed and overwhelmed? As a time management coach, I’ve seen that with just a little more intention, you can make much more meaningful connections without investing much time.If you already have one-on-one meetings scheduled with your team, take a few minutes at the start of the discussion to find out how they’re doing before jumping to the business agenda.
If remembering details about people’s lives doesn’t come naturally to you, make a private note in your calendar with memory cues, such as asking them about their new puppy, about their kids’ latest extracurriculars, or how their side venture is going.In a large team meeting, there won’t be much space for personal catchups. But if you have a smaller team, it may be appropriate to take some time on a weekly or monthly basis for updates.
When you’re on the road, you can call from airports, Ubers, or hotels or send messages when you’re waiting in lines or on trains. Even a five- to 10-minute conversation can increase your rapport and, most importantly, show that you care.If you’re working exclusively remotely, the options for informal social connection will be limited. In these cases, you can simply send a quick chat message or text asking how someone is doing or share a quick update with them.
