Getting cozy, juicy and real with your colleagues - Sophia and Jed Lazar
#022 - Would you like to get cozy, juicy and real with your colleagues, friends and family? Most of the time, we stay on the surface while interacting with people . We do a lot of small talk on topics like the weather, TV shows or just work. But those conversations don’t allow us to connect with people at a deeper level and get to know the real person behind the social mask.
In this episode, I spoke with with Sophia Lazar and Jed Lazar. Sophia and Jed are board game designers and group facilitators who are on a mission to help people have deeper and more meaningful interactions. I had wonderful chat with Sophia and Jed as they shared their story of co-creating the game with their users and their biggest learnings and tips on building meaningful connections with people through deliberate and carefully designed prompts. If you’re someone who wants to build deeper connections with your team, friends or family, then this episode is for you.
In this episode:
- Creating and co-creating a board game with users
- Biggest challenges for teams in building connections online
