The State of Human Connection at Work
In our first study on the state of human connection at work, we found that what differentiated the people who felt more connected from less connected was whether they worked for a manager who displayed the qualities of moral leadership. This year, we continued our research and found that moral leaders foster the cultures of meaningful connection. This is important because it is about how moral leadership is the key to human connection at scale.
