Ben Comstock believes that human connection is key to happiness. It inspired him to build a company dedicated to helping organizations foster community.As the Founder & CEO of OfficeAccord, Ben has built an online community platform to keep employees informed, engaged and connected. And his timing couldn’t be better. The world of work has materially shifted and hybrid work is here to stay. Organizations, seeking to bridge the gap between physical (on-site) and digital employee experiences are increasingly looking to technologies for the solution. Ben and I have been friends for a couple of years. We originally met in Copenhagen, Denmark, where I was speaking at a conference. And in amongst all the chaos, we found time to connect in a hotel lobby. He shared his personal story, the journey of OfficeAccord, and I was hooked. Beyond our mutual business interests, we have shared values. We talk about the necessary alignment of his business and life. We talk about purpose. And we look to the future. Ben is one of those people where you start talking and before long an hour passes by. This was one of those chats and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
