Yes indeed, but to be honest with you, you have to select them carefully and take your time doing so.

Chatting over lunch and joking with coworkers may not seem like more than pleasant distractions at the office, but they could have an enormous impact on your work life. Friendship could make the difference between happiness at work and burnout.

 

  1. Identify someone appropriate

  2. Choose your surroundings carefully

  3. Be open

  4. Make time for face-to-face contact

  5. Find coworkers with shared vision and values
