Workplace Belonging…

“Work is social. Our identities in society are shaped by the connections and relationships we have to people. Work provides many of these relationships and nearly all types of work involve social contribution. For some, this is washing the family’s clothes; for others, it’s removing a blood clot from a patient’s brain. Work usually involves devoting energy, knowledge, skills and abilities to the benefit of others. If you think about your own job in these terms, it may help with your sense of feeling valued, of self-worth, of purpose and belonging.”
