Midlife isn’t a meltdown. It’s a message. 💬

Careers, kids, ageing parents — it’s a lot. And somewhere along the way, we wonder if we’ve lost ourselves in all we’re holding.

This powerful keynote from HUMANS:Connecting is an invitation to slow down, be real, and remember who you are — beyond the roles.

✨ Not a crisis. A crossroads.
✨ Not an ending. A beginning.

Phil’s full keynote shows how midlife can be one of the most meaningful chapters of your life. 💛

You measure what matters. Are you measuring loneliness?

While you manage metrics, loneliness is managing your organization.

Good leaders know it's time to address loneliness from its roots. It's about creating systems where authentic relationships can flourish across every level.

The choice is yours - keep treating symptoms or address the underlying cause. Creating Connected Workplaces by Humans:Connecting and Annecy Behavioral Science Lab gives you the tools to face this head-on.

Stop hoping loneliness will solve itself. Start building connection: https://www.humansconnecting.org/creating-connected-workplaces

Manage the connection. Everything else follows.

“The question isn’t whether organisations can afford to invest in connection-aware practices. It is whether they can afford the ongoing expense of losing talented people to preventable disconnection.”

Dr Hans Rocha IJzerman from Behavioral Science Lab explains how ignoring loneliness leads to turnover, burnout and lost productivity.

“I didn’t know how to say it. So I said I was overworked.”

In our latest edition of the ‘Dear Phil’ connection advice column, a leader shares how she asked for help, but her organisation didn’t hear what she really meant.

Phil McAuliffe explains why loneliness often hides behind other words, and why leaders need to learn how to listen beyond what is said.

She led the site, but she felt alone.

In the latest article of the 'Dear Phil' connection advice column, a leader shares the toll of working remotely, and why her organisation didn’t hear her when she asked for help.

💬 “I feel like I just need a human hug.”

This is what happens when connection is missing at work.

Behind every statistic about loneliness at work is a human story— yours included.

Annecy Behavioral Science Lab and Humans:Connecting is documenting real experiences of isolation and their effects on our work lives.

This isn't just data collection. It's recognition that every experience of loneliness deserves to be heard and understood.

We believe every experience matters and adds to our understanding of social disconnection and loneliness in workplaces.

Quitting altogether isn’t Phil’s solution — instead, he’s learning to float.

Finding creative flow, setting boundaries, and prioritising rest are helping him work smarter, not harder. It’s navigating the shift from endless doing to intentional being.

If burnout is looming, maybe floating is what you need.

With thanks to Rahaf Harfoush for her amazing book ‘Hustle and Float’.
