Is Your Work Culture Contributing to Loneliness? - a podcast by LCI Academy

Next time you’re in a work meeting, look around the room. Chances are, 6 out of 10 people in the room are lonely. NPR’s recent article “Most Americans Are Lonely, And Our Workplace Culture May Not Be Helping,” states that more than 3 out of 5 Americans are lonely (and loneliness appears to be more common in men) - and work culture is often part of the problem. 

Loneliness contributes to mental health, stress, and sickness, making it a problem for employees and employers alike. So can businesses create a communal culture that only leaves loneliness behind? 

Today we’re discussing ways to identify loneliness in your office environment and how to flip the statistics.
