History of CONNECTED
|
In the early 1900’s, a psychiatrist named Dr. Alfred Adler developed a theory of psychology based on a primary principle that all humans have a need to belong or feel connected to others. Adlerian psychology has been used in a variety of settings such as psychiatric hospitals, treatment centers, private practices, schools, and corporate businesses because the concepts are easy to understand and implement in any setting that involves people.
After spending years working in various settings such as prisons, treatment centers, hospitals, and schools, the founder of CONNECTED, Dr. Jason Snow, noticed most people’s problems stem from their inability to effectively connect to others. As a result effective interventions were developed to help clients achieve feeling a sense of belonging which enables them to realize their own innate potential. Research in the area of neuropsychology supports the original work of Dr. Adler and the direct clinical experiences of Dr. Snow. Specifically, when people feel rejected, disconnected, or excluded that they register this perception in the same part of the brain as when they experience physical harm or injury. This means that being connected to others is so necessary in each of our lives that it is actually hardwired into our brains and registers as pain when we feel we have not achieved this vital goal. |
Everyone, at some point in their lives, knows the importance of being connected. If you look at studies regarding employee turn-over in companies, which is very costly to businesses everywhere, you find that one of the major reasons for leaving a job is not pay it is because the person did not feel connected or appreciated. When you examine research on suicide, you find that one of the main preventions for suicide is to get the depressed person connected to others such as friends, family, or a support system. Even when you read books or listen to interviews of successful people you will continuously hear the concept of being connected at the center of all their success. Thus, CONNECTED was formed to help schools, hospitals, treatment centers, and businesses to tap into this amazing energy of connectedness.
Our logo of a triangle made of primary colors represents the primary, yet fundamental, notion that we all need to be CONNECTED. Just like the pyramid, once we have this primary base, we can aspire to any height and still be innately secure. This core concept is captured in our company’s slogan: “When you're CONNECTED – Anything is possible.”
