Improving Work Culture with VR

On a granular level, work cultures are made of relationships, and relationships are made of interactions. Every interaction we make has the opportunity to benefit our relationships or potentially cause damage. In work, where relationships are the backbone of collaboration, productivity, engagement and teamwork, interactions are important to get right.    But it's not always that easy, or that simple. Even before the pandemic triggered a lockdown and work from home, we weren't always succeeding. Now that we're working remotely with increased distraction and less direct contact, or on the front lines as essential workers under tremendous pressures, the dynamics have gotten even more complicated. Zoom fatigue and incivility are just two factors undermining our working relationships, whether we're aware of them or not. Today, Robin Rosenberg, CEO and Founder of Live in Their World, as well as an executive coach and clinical psychologist, joins #WorkTrends to talk about the best practices for improving our work interactions and our empathy for each other, and learning how to repair the damage before it adds up to an impasse. Robin's organization, Live in Their World, uses VR technology to teach us not just how to walk in each other's shoes, but "in their feet," to truly experience their perspective and build bridges rather than walls.
