On Monday, one of my colleagues provided restaurant gift cards to be used for community affairs, business development and volunteer involvement. Minutes after receiving the gift cards, I received a message encouraging door prizes from a supported organization. I offered gift cards for this organization to our dedicated bank representative via email with a copy to a colleague who would fulfill the request.
Unbeknown to me, the dedicated bank representative was having difficulties understanding a new role in the merged organization. My colleague who would fulfill the request thought that my outreach was because I knew that another colleague was struggling. The unexpected opportunity to provide gift cards to deserving organizations also provided an unexpected chance to advise and encourage a valuable colleague during a substantive coaching conversation.
Some believe that there are no coincidences. My way to categorize this reality is by sharing some of the many ways that everything's connected.
