so many of usususus loss of human connection. some of us come from home or office. >> the key to this was loneliness was before the pandemic. 60% of americans are lonely including 80% of gen z and 70% of americans. this was an issue long before we were working from home. it's long into the future. i think what we need to do is bring back the connection that we use to have from the office into the remote work force. employees who have the best friend at work are seven times more engaged. if they can identify and say this is my best friend, my buddy, we get lunch, coffee, take a walk, hang out on saturdays. we hang out on friday nights. that person is going to do much better work. let's encourage friendship at the work place. we need to make sure we have shared goals with colleagues. employees have shared goals, shared purpose. their company and team is working on something greater than themselves, maybe solving a social environmental challenge. those employees are less lonely, going to feel that belonging and connection at work. e
