to sit in that big corner office, or even if you simply want the next promotion or raise, it is always best to take the path of highest relational value,” Kelley said. “Go into the office if given the choice of doing that or working from home. Go in person to that group meeting if they will let you in the door.” He also suggests businesses make the effort to connect their brand to community- focused initiatives.

The more business people are attuned to the human need for making connections, the more successful they will be, because the need for connection is one of the most basic human needs.” Making An Appearance In that regard, Kelley rec- ommends that ambitious em- ployees make appearances at the office as much as possible, even if they routinely work remotely. “If you are the sort of person who wants to advance, wants
