Socialising in the workplace is good for the business



A successful workforce has an essential trait: it has strong social connections among co-workers. Biology has taught us that we are social animals, as from an evolutionary point of view the tribes where people worked together were the ones that had greater chances to face the danger of wildness and survive. Instead, the lone wolves had more difficulties in hunting and gathering food.


This changed our instinctive behavior, being with others of our clan wasn't perceived by our brain like perilous, but gave us a positive response. This is true even today: social connection makes people happier, and this is very important in one of the most social environment of our lives, the workplace. Having a job where social connections are neutered translates into higher motivation and productivity.


In this article of 2018 Forbes lists five reasons social connections enhance work performance, showing how socialising in the workplace can be the key to boost employees’ satisfaction and fulfilment. In their analysis they look at the positive effects of creating a friendly environment for employees.
