Connection = Mental Health.?? American Psychological Association’s Work in America Survey (conducted in 2023) shows that 77% of employees experience workplace stress, impacting their well-being and productivity. Yet, professionals who feel a sense of belonging at work are 3 times more likely to report job satisfaction and overall happiness. It’s high time to acknowledge that there is a direct link between human connection and mental health in the workplace. ?? That’s why our team at Matcha so passionately champions building both professional and personal network. It’s not just about career advancement; it’s about creating a support system that helps shield you against burnout and stress. Close connections can increase your sense of safety, contribute to your mental well-being at work, boost your happiness levels, and reduce the risk of loneliness—a factor tied to depression and anxiety. Today, let’s make the effort to connect. Catch up with a colleague, reach out to a mentor, or support a friend; each moment of human, 1:1 connection matters. Bit by bit, one conversation at a time, we can create a safe and healthy space to thrive, both in and outside of work.

Networking superpower: Give before you get! Simply asking, “What are you working on?” and genuinely helping others can open doors you never imagined. It’s all about focusing on building real connection, and not playing the numbers game. Hear Melissa Moody ?? on a recent episode of the Revenue Reimagined podcast with Adam Jay ?? & Dale Zwizinski, talk about how: Network > Audience Want more?

“Make the time to be a good, appreciative human being. If you feel it, share it. If you don't, don't force it - people can tell when it's not genuine. That's how we build real connections, even in a digital world.” - Jason Etter ?? As a big fan of our effort to make professional networking more human-focused, Jason wrote a guest article for Matcha. He shares observations from his 20-year Growth Marketing career on how identity plays a role in driving business success. And why being authentic matters more than ever.

“Networking” is a broad term, isn’t it? We all do it a little differently. But whether you're well into your career or just getting started, networking plays a key role. ?? Today, we’ve got a fun way for you to learn just which TYPE of networker YOU are… Collector? Connector? Activator? Collaborator? Supporter? Take our Networking Quiz and find out! ?? https://matcha.so/quiz

If you’re still holding on the the old-school mindset that networking is a numbers game. Snap out of it. It’s so much more than that. Building meaningful relationships is the way to go. ??
