How to build strong relationships in the digital era?

Question

Maybe it's just me and that I live far from a big city but I suspect this is true for a lot of people in tech...

With most of us now working remotely and connecting only on digital channels I feel making good reliable (long term) connections professionally is getting harder.

How do you balance digital and in person networking?

Don't just text, get face-to-face (virtually or literally)! Video calls and virtual hangouts can build rapport, and attending industry events when you can keeps things real.

P.S. I am personally in love with zoom coffee meetings with leople from linkedin, whom I have never seen in person

While some say dating has lost its charm, when you accidentally meet someone on the street, in a café, or through mutual friends, I think modern dating, especially with online sites, has become much more convenient, fast, and effective. Finding your match for a relationship is much easier. And if you're looking for a one-night partner, there are platforms like gazeandfuck. Overall, I think everything has become simpler, more convenient, and faster, which is a big plus for people living in big cities with busy schedules.

Answer

Show empathy towards other persons feelings. Understand and share the feelings of others.
