This may sound odd, but the most basic advice would be to actually communicate - talk about what you’re feeling and what you want. Don’t just assume people know what’s going for you. There are several reasons we don’t address issues - it feels yucky, or we want to keep the peace, or we’re scared, or we’re embarrassed, or we don’t think it will change anything. It makes sense why we’re avoidant, but if we’re avoidant, surely nothing will change.

If you want to approach someone, take note of what’s present for them - where they are coming from, where are they going. For instance, take note if, they’re frustrated and in the middle of preparing dinner after a long day at work. It really helps to first ask someone if they are available, if they’re not, collaborate with them in planning a time to talk in the near future. No one wants to feel hostage to a conversation, and you don’t want to talk to someone who is distracted.

Notice your expectations and, let them go. Without realizing it, we often fantasize about how we think an interaction might turn out, hoping another person will respond in a specific way. In doing so, this expectation becomes the filter in which we view reality. Preconceptions can be distractions that get in the way of two people meeting - really meeting. Alternatively, to start clean & open is to be primed for connection.

In corporate the physical with eye contact, body language and touch. Obviously this will be person and circumstance specific, but ask yourself, are there more ways I can be connecting that I’m missing out on? Often our eyes or body can communicate a depth that our words cannot.
Ask yourself, is there a rank at which I am holding this other person? Are you placing them below you - thus making you act cocky and impersonal? Are you placing them above - causing you to feel intimidated? Ultimately you’re both humans and that puts you on the same level. Notice if you ever loose touch with this. Unfortunately unconscious ranking does happen — and gets in the way of our connection & communication.
