– Many set life goals related to financial success, yet report that it is positive social interactions that have brought them the most happiness.

– Research reveals that when a person donates to others, it sparks up more reward mechanisms in the brain than receiving money for themselves.

A Must-Know Fact: Research Reveals Positive Social Relations Boost Business Outcomes 240%

In this session we look at what Positive Social Relations can do for your business, your team, or your employees. It will be apparent that simple improvements in human relations can make your team much more productive, drive sales and eventually produce greater profits. The Circles Agency (our consulting and team building firm) has found that a connected culture–meaning a warm atmosphere with positive social relations– is the most valuable strategic asset any company can get.

– The good news: through a simple gesture of positive recognition, you can get your employee to be much more productive and willing to do more work for less money.

– The bad news: ignoring your employee is almost as damaging to productivity as shredding their work right in front of their eyes… So it’s easy to de-motivate people also.

– Additional benefits of Positive Social Relations in business include improved employee health, fewer sick days, a more congenial workplace, increased psychological resourcefulness, greater stamina.

– The greatest predictor of work team achievement is how the team members feel about one another, whether they felt valued and supported.

– Studies have found that the strength of the bond between manager and employee is the prime predictor of both daily productivity and the length of the time people stay at their jobs.

– In dollars and cents, one positive email between one worker and another was worth $948 in revenue.

At the end of this course, the Circles Agency will offer personal experience right through your computer with the optimal cooperative environment.

– Research-based Social Interdependence Theory unveils important insights about the relative merits of cooperative learning over competitive or individualistic efforts.

– The cooperative learning increases willingness to take on difficult tasks and persist despite difficulties, improves reasoning, and magnifies critical thinking skills.

– Cooperative learning results in lower absenteeism and fewer dropouts, higher morale and persistence for learning, and higher achievement and productivity.

– Connection in the classroom creates a network of collaborators who care about each other’s achievements and success.

Use the Miraculous Power of Collective Intelligence to Excel at Almost Anything

Research on Positive Social Relations reveals a single element, miraculous seeming in its impact, that will make any team successful. Cognitive problem solving tasks, negotiation, execution, moral reasoning and numerous other tasks are usually performed most successfully by individuals with greater intelligence. However, levels of achievement at such tasks are consistently out-stripped by a group with unremarkable intelligence, without group cohesion, special satisfaction, or even motivation. The startling results come from a factor called Collective Intelligence.

When it comes to intelligence, a team comprised of very intelligent people is NOT necessarily a better team than one comprised of people with average intelligence.

– Collective intelligence does depend on the social sensitivity of the group.

– Collective intelligence is associated with equal distribution of turns speaking in the group.

– Collective intelligence is associated with a higher proportion of females in the group. Remember, females generally score higher on the social sensitivity measures than men.

Partner with Nature: Positive Social Relations Produce Results because We Are Hard-Wired for Connection

Throughout the lessons in this section, you have learned how Positive Social Relations affect virtually every level and area of human experience in remarkably beneficial ways. Let’s find out why is it that interactions with others can supercharge our abilities, optimize our performance, and better our well-being. Different fields of research today are weaving a comprehensive answer: we are connected by nature.

– Within our bodies, built in biological structures and systems are tuned for connection.

– Mirror neurons enable us to empathize with and experience within ourselves what the others feel.

– Biological mechanisms such as your Vagus nerve is an element of our hard-wired connection system.

– Research now shows that your vagal tone increases as you experience positive moments of connection with others.

– Science now knows that when connected with our group, levels of oxytocin increase.


Section 4: What’s Diverting Us from Positive Social Relations


Movies-icon Lecture 26 The Fundamental Survival Instinct
04:09

Make Your Choice Conscious—Reasoning with the Flight or Fight Mechanism

Over the course of our evolutionary history, we developed a fundamental survival instinct, a fight or flight mechanism, to protect us from danger. We always act out of our own self-concern. While our survival instinct may have protected us from saber-toothed tigers, in today’s world it plays a major role in preventing us from scouting for Positive Social Relations because often we are scouting for possible danger instead. We can’t change this survival mechanism, but we can change the way we use it.

There is a mechanism in our brain that makes us hardwired to be most attentive to danger and negative scenarios. One role of the “Limbic System,” is responsibility for our emotions, motivations, pleasure, pain. When a threat is detected, blood circulation, together with oxygen supply, is diverted away from the slower cognitive problem-solving areas of the brain.

Our culture is constantly over-stimulating our survival instinct, but through connection we can override the system.

Movies-icon Lecture 27 Today’s Culture of Self Centeredness

It’s Time to Arm Yourself for the War Going On for Your Happiness & Success

Today people aren’t happy and society is in a multifaceted crisis. The entire world suffers from distorted definitions of happiness and success, runs an exhausting treadmill of consumerism and materialism leading to nothing but depression and despair. The current cultural mindset is fighting against our drive to engage in Positive Social Relations.

While human connection is actually natural and intuitive for us—scientifically proven to boost well-being, health, happiness, and success in life—Positive Social Relations are left on the sidelines in the cultural environment of today.

Key themes of the cultural waters that surround us are status obsession, narcissism, compulsive consumption, materialism. Our cultural environment uses every possible means to divert our attention from the benefits of positive social relations, and the natural human need to develop them.

– NO ONE is resistant to the ongoing bombardment of daily advertising; hundreds and thousands of ads a day create your norms and determine your aspirations.

– Our deeply rooted survival instinct is repeatedly switched on by inappropriate signals from the environment.

– An environment full of negative social patterns, constant acts of violence and exploitation, and narcissism is paralyzing our natural inclination for happiness and success.

How to Circle-Up for Sustainable Success

Social influence is all pervasive. Your perception, cognition, sense of judgment, preferences, opinions, values, definitions of good and bad, right or wrong, what you despise and what you love – are all continuously shaped by your social environment. Social contagion happens without your awareness–ideas, norms and moods are always infecting you and others around you. Any change we wish to make must be supported by your environment. Without the right environment, you have little chance of sustained success. The Circles University is dedicated to creating circles to sustain your happiness & success. That’s what the Circles Method is all about!

– How environment changes both judgement and perception

– Anything we do without taking the environment into account, will give us very little chance of sustained success

– In the context of your quest for happiness & success, environment becomes the most influential choice you will make.

– Your environment today is the you of tomorrow!
