2) Board and Member Highlights
a) Importance of Small Talk - Sukhjit with S&I
We meet strangers, new employees, random people almost every day.
Thanks to COVID-19, this part of our lives is not so active right now.
Hence, we wanted to bring back those moments where:
you wanted to speak with someone but didn’t know how to start.
You tried to start a conversation and searched for motivation.
You were interested in talking to someone but struggled to speak..”
Members joined the board members in a fireside chat with our founder and chairman, Sukhjit. It was one of the most exciting sessions we had so far.
Were you able to start a conversation? How did you feel about it?
