Stephen Phelan, Movement Mortgage’s Chief Pastoral Officer, shared at a conference I attended about Movement Mortgage’s approach to caring for their team members. After exploring the needs of their teammates, Movement Mortgage concluded that everyone had three common needs within the workplace.
All need friends at work,
friends during a crisis, and each needs to have purpose in their work.
Let’s address friends at work. Studies show that very few people have multiple friends. The best opportunity for developing friendships is usually in our workplaces.
Movement Mortgage established a Movement Mentoring program to encourage their people to build friendships at work.
Proverbs 17:17 says, “A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity.”
Do you find ways to encourage friendships in your workplace?
