Then, you can prepare a short speech for yourself that is intended to give an overview of who you are and what you do. An elevator pitch is helpful in this regard. An elevator pitch, also known as an elevator speech, is a short, engaging speech that helps in introducing yourself or your business to someone. Remember! Giving a presentation about your life story is NOT what an elevator pitch is about. Instead, it’s a good short chat that piques the listener’s curiosity.

It's Also About Loneliness    More and more people are feeling tired and lonely at work – and it’s having an impact not just on individuals but organizations too. The authors’ research shows that 50% of people across professions are burned out. Experts and companies have struggled to figure out how to counter this growing level of burnout. Many recommendations focus on relieving stress, teaching mindfulness, or reducing workload – all of which treat burnout as an individual condition. But its link to loneliness suggests that greater human connection at work may also be key to solving the burnout problem. Leaders and managers can play a key role in helping people feel less lonely, and therefore, less burned out at work by promoting a workplace of empathy and inclusion, encouraging employees to build networks that can provide emotional support, and celebrating collective success that fosters a sense of belonging. More and more people are feeling tired and lonely at work. In analyzing the General Social Survey of 2016, we found that, compared with roughly 20 years ago, people are twice as likely to report that they are always exhausted.

What’s more, there is a significant correlation between feeling lonely and work exhaustion: The more people are exhausted, the lonelier they feel. This loneliness is not a result of social isolation, as you might think, but rather is due to the emotional exhaustion of workplace burnout. In researching the book The Happiness Track, we found that 50% of people — across professions, from the nonprofit sector to the medical field — are burned out. This isn’t just a problem for busy, overworked executives (though the high rates of loneliness and burnout among this group are well known). Our work suggests that the problem is pervasive across professions and up and down corporate hierarchies. Continued here
