Last week we shared an article from Berkley's Greater Good Magazine about the four ways music strengthens social bonds. In the article author Jill Stuttie writes that music increases contact, co-ordination and co-operation. She writes "according to research when we try to synch with others musically—keeping the beat or harmonizing, for example—we tend to feel positive social feelings towards those with whom we’re synchronizing, even if that person is not visible to us or not in the same room.”

We know that music is pleasurable, and it seems to play a role in our wellbeing. But many researchers also believe that music plays a significant role in strengthening social bonds. A good read here from Greater Good Science Center about “Four Ways Music Strengthens Social Bonds.”

In a recent article from ‘Gallup on Six Workplace Trends In 2024’ it appears that there are still challenges for both employees and leaders around hybrid work.
