Work is always busy, there is so much to do and little time. So why should we take the time to smile and ask others how they are doing? In this episode, Tom Wright tells me that smiling and socialisation need not take much time, it can be as simple as a nod with a welcoming face. In fact, aiming for small changes may be better than trying to organise a big event. The action of smiling is likely to not only make others feel better, it is also likely to put you in a better mood. This way we can create a different culture, filled with kindness, and overall better connections with others at work.
