Totally on point. Another phrase I've heard is "putting pennies in the cup". The pennies are are acts that let others know you're paying attention and see them as whole people. They can be as simple as following up with what a coworker had planned for their weekend.

I like that phrase. I had never heard it before. But I think that the Penny analogy is more tangible and contextualized, since most of us understand the monetary value of a Penny, but the value of a water droplet is debatable.

Thanks for sharing and reading. I am glad you enjoyed it!
