S04 E39 - Why it's so hard (for men) to make friends at work
SHOWNOTES
On today’s episode of Speak Onstage, I dive into a topic that’s close to my heart: why it’s so difficult for men to make meaningful friends at work. It’s a problem many professionals face, especially men, who often find themselves isolated in environments that prioritise competition over connection. Even post-pandemic, with more opportunities to interact both online and in-person, forming real friendships still feels out of reach for many. I’ll be sharing my personal experiences, lessons learned from experts, and actionable strategies you can apply to build better relationships at work, whether you’re an entry-level employee or a seasoned leader.
Show Guide
Conclusion
In this episode, I explored why making friends at work is particularly tough for men and provided a roadmap to overcoming these challenges. From workplace competition to societal expectations, men face unique hurdles when it comes to building meaningful relationships. But the good news is that by improving communication skills and being intentional, it’s possible to create real connections at work and beyond. I hope this episode inspires you to take the first step towards building a stronger network of friends and colleagues.
