While many factors undoubtedly influence whether we experience belonging in the workplace, there are ways to foster it independently. If you are new to a job or feel isolated at the office (or in your home), consider using the following strategies from Jen Bogle, strategic communications and organization design expert.

This is tremendously important in developing countries facing steep challenges in poverty alleviation, migration management and green growth and sustainability. Often political and social contexts are very complex, teams are overworked, resources are limited and it seems as though the obstacles and resistance to change are never ending. The people willing to put in the hours to generate an impact in the world must remember they, and their health, deserve to be taken care of with the same dedication they give out to others.
