If it mattered

What if the next interaction you had was recorded, reviewed, and evaluated as part of your job interview?

Whether it’s a conversation with a colleague, a proprietor, a neighbor, or a child … what if that single interaction was analyzed? What if it mattered?

We’re not typically judged based solely on that kind of thin slice. But at times, we are.

Sometimes a single interaction is consequential.

This seems stressful. We can’t navigate every social interaction at peak performance.

But we can work to adjust our default. We can practice being thoughtful, courteous, curious, and poised.

And over time, random samples of how we interact — they’re likely to pass muster.
