Background on This Chat Topic
Do you see optimism as something positive? Do your work colleagues, friends, and family agree with you? You might think this is a ridiculous question yet there are varying views on optimism. It affects interactions and thus worthwhile to explore.
People Skills Twitter Chat Sept. 22, 2013: Optimism, Attitude, & #Peopleskills
Join People Skills Twitter Chat Sun. Sept. 22, 2013 10am EDT.
Some people dislike being around optimists. They see them as dreamers who quietly demand that others smile and be happy.
Others love them. They see optimists as inspirational thinkers who sustain others with hope as they work to make things better. Phew .. what a large gap in definition and perception! So let’s explore optimism and see if we can close the gap.
As we think ahead to Sunday’s people skills chat, questions come to mind:
- Why does this gap exist? Pessimists, optimists, realists?
- What is your definition of optimism?
- How does optimism and inspiration relate or differ?
- If you had to choose between being around optimists or non-optimists, which would you choose and why?
- How does optimism make you feel?
- How does optimism influence outcomes?
- What effect does optimism have on people skills?
These are just some questions to get us thinking before we begin the people skills chat this Sunday.
So bring your personal perspective, your favorite beverage, and join us from around the globe this Sunday in the USA — Sept. 22, 2013 at 10am EDT — to explore Optimism, Attitude, and People skills.
