Join the #Peopleskills One Year Anniversary Chat: Sunday Jan. 26, 2014 10am ET.

Background on This Celebration – the One Year Anniversary of People Skills Community

One year ago I launched the people skills community via the #peopleskills Twitter chat.

The overall purpose: sustaining people skills and relationships to build bonds of success for all involved. It has grown tremendously as many co-hosts and global participants have explored diverse people skills topics. Last week as we ran our first online people skills rally to end bullying, it set the stage for this week’s topic — sustaining people and their goals!

Anniversary Twitter Chat: Sustaining People Skills

As we rallied last week to end bullying, it became clear that our goal of sustaining people skills is a very worthy one. Humans can choose to lift each other up or beat each other down. Lifting each other up is the clear winner. It fuels goals, expands everyone’s possibilities, and builds bonds of success.

Tom Rhodes became a member of people skills community at a difficult time in his life and rediscovered confidence in connection. He is now one of the Twitter chat moderators giving back to everyone who joins the Sunday chat! Chantal Bechervaise made a tough decision to leave a toxic workplace. She found resilience within herself sustained by our people skills community. She is now one of the moderators of our community on Google+.

Whose actions have sustained you? Beyond your own self-confidence and actions, where and when have others lifted you up personally and professionally?

Going further, many questions come to mind about sustaining people skills:

• Sustaining people – what’s in it for you?
• How do we move past win/lose views to win/win?
• What people skills sustain ourselves and others?
• In sustaining yourself, what can you share to sustain others?
• Does sustaining others make them weak/dependent or uplift then to help others?
• Formal teams sustain their members. How can social communities do the same?
• When have people skills community members sustained you during this first year?
• What did the people skills community do well to sustain its efforts during this year?
• Where did we miss opportunities that we can address in this second year?
• How can we extend our sustaining efforts to do more to end bullying?

These are just some questions to get us thinking before we begin the #people skills Twitter chat on sustaining people skills. Actual questions will post live during the chat.

So bring your personal perspective, your favorite beverage, and join us from around the globe this Sunday in people skills anniversary Twitter chat — Jan. 26, 2014 10am ET (Hashtag: #peopleskills) — to explore sustaining people skills and relationships for mutual success.

I also invite you to continue this chat by joining the Google+ People Skills Community and the LinkedIn Group People Skills Succeed to be a part of all the people skills discussions everyday 24×7. Get your people skills community member badge here.
