Don't use a phone in front of another human being you've committed to spending time with. Technology - intelligently used - is awesome. Properly leveraged, it allows for great things to happen and can enrich your relationships noticeably. Poorly handled, it can push people away and ruin your reputation.

The greatest gift you can give your child or your spouse or your client or your coworker is the gift of the fullness of your attention. When you focus your presence and your energy and your attention on another human being, you make that person bigger. You validate that person. One of the greatest gifts you can give another human being is the gift of pristine listening. And if you're checking your phone, well then again, you're taking your attention and you're leaving attention residue on your phone. Which means you have less attention for the conversation. And if you have less attention for the conversation, then you're not really listening to that person. And if you're not really listening to that person, the deep place within them knows it and they're gonna trust you less. And you're gonna miss data that would allow you to serve your client or build the teammate or dominate your domain. So no phone conversations professionally and personally. Just turn off your phone, turn off your device before the meeting, and go all old school and have areal conversation. The best leaders are curious. You don't get that if you're worried about your incoming digital messages.
