Human Connection for Success: Be Memorable Not Just Noticed | #PeopleSkills

We often hear about the power of the human connection for success in business. Yet, that’s only true if the connection is something more than a casual handshake. It’s not enough to be noticed for a moment. The power of the human connection is in being memorable in service to others.


To achieve success — be memorable for others.


Being memorable doesn’t come from being noticed because you’re different in some way. Being memorable comes from being connected with others in ways that matter to them.
