I’ve just read an eye-opening piece from aaask on the persistent issue of workplace loneliness. The article examines how both remote and on-site workers are experiencing a disconnect despite numerous communication tools. It’s particularly striking how this loneliness is affecting mental health and career growth. Their exploration of solutions like increased virtual check-ins and casual conversations is well worth a look.
“In fact, 76% of people said workplace loneliness has negatively impacted their mental health, with 40% adding that the impact had been severe.”
