What is a WeHelp Club?
A WeHelp club is just two or more people getting together to talk about how to help themselves and the people around them.
When we talk about mindset we think of 'my mindset', when it should be 'OUR mindset'. How can we help ourselves and the people around us?
The goal of WeHelp is to get a WeHelp club started in most of the schools in the world. If we start early and every one of us has the WeHelp Mindset the world will be a far better place.
Join our community and you'll find many ideas in the stories we share, but here are two of my experiences:
At Apple I created the bay area's first mentorship program in my industry. There is no better way to learn than to teach so watching these people reach out to students and share their passion was amazing to see.
At IBM no one was talking to each other, and our youngest team members were afraid to ask for help. I started a WeHelp club and all of the best guys joined because they loved the work and enjoyed talking about it. As soon as we advertised our availablity we paired up with people to review our work and share ideas. Within a few weeks the mood of our department completely shifted with people smiling and eager talk.
What can we do to help?
The core principle of WeHelp is:
Spending time with people is helping them.
Social connection is more important to our health and longevity than not smoking. We spent a huge amount of time and money getting people to stop smoking and we need to put a similar amount of energy into social connection. Don't agree? Try being lonely for a few days.
So simply organizing group activities and encouraging shy or reluctant people to join is a huge help. Many of you are doing this already. The cool thing about WeHelp is that it is built into us.
Beyond that think of mentoring, learning together, or exercising together. Share your stories in our community and we'll find a lot of fun things to do.
