<h3><strong>#99 Read a Book Together Quarterly </strong></h3>
<p>Periodically select a business book for your direct reports or team members to read together. Consider reading one book every quarter. Meet or host a video call to identify ideas from the book that you can implement. Some examples include <em>The 5 Languages of Appreciation in the Workplace</em>, <em>Pour Your Heart Into It</em>, and <em>It’s Not About the Coffee</em>.</p>
<p><em>This is the ninety-ninth post in our series entitled “100 Ways to Connect.” The series highlights language, attitudes and behaviors that help you connect with others. Although the language, attitudes and behaviors focus on application in the workplace, you will see that they also apply to your relationships at home and in the community.</em></p>
