Hello QDT listeners, This week, Rachel Cooke, your Modern Mentor, is helping you make better connections at work. Her first tip? Ask questions that will deliver facts, data, and timelines. But also. Make time to ask questions with the sole purpose of sparking conversation. To get to know someone a little better—without being intrusive. Not sure what to ask? Rachel's friend Naomi just introduced her to a fun, free tool. It’s a check-in question generator which you can find at TheDigitalWorkplace.com. And it’s a great way to kick off a meeting—whether in a group or one-on-one. It will generate questions about your career dreams from when you were 8 or the best places you’ve traveled to. Connecting with others doesn’t have to be deeply personal. But bringing small bits of the you that lives outside of the office—and finding those bits in others? It’s a great way to find shared interests, to learn about how someone thinks, or frankly just to chuckle. Couldn’t we all use an extra dose of laughter at work sometimes? Listen to all of Rachel's tips on the subject here, or read a transcript here.
