Episode 275: The Dynamics of Working Relationships with Mark Monchek
Show Notes

There’s an old saying that goes, “Some people are there for a reason, some are there for a season, and some are there for a lifetime." People come and go as we evolve, change directions, or change jobs, but relationships remain an important part of who we are and how we live our lives. 

In today’s monthly episode with Mark Monchek, business consultant and Founder of Opportunity Lab, our focus is all about relationships; how they evolve, deepen, and more specifically, how working relationships have drastically changed since the pandemic.

Join the conversation as we dive into the importance of just hanging out, being aware of your intentions when connecting, cultivating the skill and awareness of curiosity in your relationships, and why you need to be diligent in your ability to be truly present in any given moment!
