Ikigai Summit 2024 - Building Bridges: US Chamber of Connection

Aaron Hurst and Katie Mooney discussed the US Chamber of Connection, a national initiative focused on building infrastructure to address the growing crisis of disconnection and distrust in society. This organization emphasizes that connection is not merely a social nicety, but a fundamental human need with significant implications for individual health, community well-being, and economic prosperity. The Chamber of Connection is currently piloting a program in Seattle to support new residents in building strong social bonds during their first year in the city. Three Key Takeaways ●The decline in connection is a major societal issue that is harming individuals, communities, organizations, and the country as a whole. *26 million American adults report having no friends. *44 million American adults are experiencing significant loneliness. *Loneliness is as harmful as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. *United States ranks LAST among 24 countries in the percentage of people who feel connected. ●Connection is not just a "nice to have," but an economic imperative. Lonely employees are less productive and more expensive, while socially connected people contribute to the economy and are better brand ambassadors. Loneliness contributes an estimated $466 per person to our annual healthcare costs. Loneliness costs employers $4,200 per employee due to drops in productivity. ●The six points of connection provide a framework for understanding and building healthy social connections: neighbor for emergency contact, a community with shared identity, two meaningful interactions per week, a third place for casual interactions, a community around a shared interest, and service to others. Three Steps to Take Action 1)Assess your own level of connection based on the six points. Identify areas where you can improve and take intentional steps to strengthen your connections. 2)Become a "Welcome Committee Ambassador." Look for newcomers in your community and encourage them to get involved in the Chamber of Connection's programs. You can also become a welcome facilitator or neighborhood lead with the US Chamber of Connection. 3.)Spread the word and change the conversation. Talk to others about the importance of connection and help them realize that it is a critical issue. Help build the political will to create change. www.ikigaistories.com
