[ Connection ]

Of the four factors that a successful career can be built on (mastery, autonomy, impact, and connection), connection probably matters the most. 

Most jobs, roles, tasks, projects, and goals, have some interaction of some sort with another person.  Many jobs have interactions with many, many other people.  And that’s where connection comes in, and why it matters the most.

There is a plethora of advice and information out there about how to work with others.  And it’s up to us individually to practise it: we need to make the effort to connect with others, not just to work with them.
