In his book, Guest tells of a college professor who said, 'Nothing is more important than relationships,' a motto Guest lives by.
'A few years ago, a business situation arose in a country far from my home that required my involvement. It was close to Christmas, and I had already been traveling for three straight weeks. I didn't want to go anywhere so close to Christmas,' Guest writes. 'I didn't want to fly halfway around the globe for a two-hour meeting when I could solve the problem sitting in my office in a virtual meeting. But I knew I had to make the visit.
'Efforts to be there in person did not go unnoticed or unappreciated. The fact that I had traveled halfway across the world demonstrated my commitment to the company and the importance I placed on relationships. We made much more progress than we would have communicating through the computer.'
As we navigate the digital era, Guest implores others to connect in person with colleagues, friends and family.
'As we begin 2024, let's balance our online presence with real-life engagements. Let's reshape the narrative of our digital lives and prioritize genuine connections,' he said. 'By intentionally deciding the way we engage with technology, we can cultivate authentic relationships amid the digital noise.'
This call to action from Guest, a leader in health and wellness, is a testament to his commitment to overall well-being, including mental and emotional health, and a timely reminder of the importance to use technology as a bridge to genuine human connection, not as a barrier.
