UNLOCKING THE SECRET TO CONNECTION

 

Did you know that unlocking the secret to connection is quite simple-just ask questions.  

 

Connection doesn’t happen by trying to convince another party of your viewpoint or your product.  It is created simply by asking questions and listening.

 

Join Craig and Ryan as they discuss unlocking the secret to connection and how you can apply that in a powerful way to growing your business and improving your relationships one question at a time.

 

Whether it be connecting on a personal or professional level, “as humans, we are all in the people business.”



TOPICS DISCUSSED TODAY

  • Connection
  • Authenticity
  • Vulnerability
  • The power of asking why, what if and how
  • Avoiding the one dimensional trap
  • The business of connecting

 

CRAIG SAID:

 

“Getting vulnerable causes other people to get vulnerable”

 

“In businesses, using [questions] to change company cultures”

 

“Imagine if you took a whole year, 52 questions, and really asked your employees what they would like from their company”

 

“These questions let you confront problems, anticipate the challenge at hand and try to understand it better”

 

“It’s possible to retrain ourselves to go out there and have authentic connections- it’s totally within our power.”

 

“I specifically help them connect to their brand, to their tribe and connect on social media”

 

ABOUT CRAIG

 

Craig Oborn is founder and CEO of Connect52, “Transforming families one engaging question and shared vulnerable answer at a time.” Connect52 was born from a combination of his diverse personal and professional background.

 

Craig has embraced the Benjamin Franklin quote, “nothing ventured, nothing gained” venturing to start a t-shirt company, convenience store, and food magazine. Craig lives life with an entrepreneurial curiosity, and a desire to leave the world a better place than he found it.

 

He became a mediator not to mediate divorce but instead to mediate marriages. It was his use of his mediation skill set, that inspired the creation of Connect52 when he asked, “what would my life be like if I were authentically connected to my family?” 52 questions and one year later an empathic connection was formed from the vulnerably shared answers. His family transformation is creating a Revolution in Human Connection.

 

Craig is a sought-out TEDx speaker and business consultant, connecting companies to their tribe and creating new authentic company culture. Craig is partner in a mortgage business, The Olsen & Oborn Team connecting REALTORS to their brand, marketing and clients. As humans, we are all in the people business.
