#eMentorMinute PT 2. It’s subtle and pervasive and can be nearly impossible to do at work. And – if your conversation is light and familiar, it might be no big deal… but good listening and digital devices do not play well together. (https://t.co/4aIFyg2QwO) #ementorconnect
#eMentorMinute PT 1. Hide your device. Having your smartphone on the table during a meeting or over lunch is a flashing neon sign that sends a clear message to your conversation partner: “IM NOT LISTENING”.

#eMentorMinute PT 1. Make time. The scientific pros and cons of being perpetually late is a conversation du jour. But one thing we know is that listening takes time, and that to be “in a hurry” means that mentally, you’ve already left.
#eMentorMinute PT 4. If you see your smartphone during the conversation, you’re far more likely to pick it up (even if it doesn’t make a sound), and then guess what? You’re officially not listening. (Click to read more: https://t.co/4aIFyg2QwO) #mentee#ementorconnect

#eMentorMinute PT2. Remote employees aren’t going to get the daily opportunities for the reinforcement of the mission by coming to the office, so it’s more important than ever that they know and understand precisely what they are working for, and how they fit into the Grand Plan.
PT 2. It is equally important that you have a well-balanced and healthy professional life. It’s time to consider in 2020 who is helping you ensure that your career has the versatility needed to thrive in your 9 to 5. (Click to read more https://t.co/yOGMXHehE0)
PT1. We love the start of a New Year! For many, it provides the fuel needed to re-engage and focus on personal goals after some self-reflection. Some hire personal trainers to tone up and meet physical health goals. While fitting into that old pair of jeans is important...
