Why Face-to-Face Communication?

The mere presence of other people engaged in the same task as us can boost our motivation.

In face-to-face encounters, our brains process the continual cascade of nonverbal cues that we use as the basis for building trust and professional intimacy. Face-to-face interaction is information-rich. We interpret what people say to us only partially from the words they use. We get most of the message (and all of the emotional nuance behind the words) from vocal tone, pacing, facial expressions and body language. And we rely on immediate feedback – the instantaneous responses of others – to help us gauge how well our ideas are being accepted.

So potent is the nonverbal link between individuals that, when we are in genuine rapport with someone, we subconsciously match our body positions, movements, and even our breathing rhythms with theirs. Most interesting, in face-to-face encounters the brain’s ”mirror neurons” mimic not just behaviors, but sensations and feelings as well.

Relationships are the key to innovation

Relationships are the key to innovation, organizations around the world are using architecture to create physical environments that stimulate both arranged and chance encounters. The theory is that innovation rarely takes place in any formal setting. People learn more from comparing experiences in hallways than from reading company manuals, going online to a knowledge repository, or attending training sessions.

If relationships are key to innovation and collaboration, trust is the glue.
