People have been working virtually (remote working) for years. To be fair, for many organisations, it was the odd few working remotely vs. the majority.
Suddenly, the world was disrupted and we were all forced to STAY HOME. And so began the largest human experiment, in real-time, of navigating this new working paradigm, worldwide. Whether we wanted to or not. Recently, we asked our clients, stakeholders and friends “What is your main concern about the ‘human’ aspect of working at home?”. Interestingly enough, the number one concern was overwhelming “The fear of feeling isolated from the team”. The challenge - how do we possibly maintain the feeling of connection and sense of belonging when we are not seeing each other face to face?
If ever a time in our lives the term VUCA is more relevant, it’s now.
From bushfires, to floods to now the global Big C pandemic! The world we live and operate in is more VUCA than ever. We are living in unprecedented circumstances. Every part of our everyday life is being threatened; our environment, our health, our wellbeing, our economy our social structures.
Okie Dokie, the trial month for 2020 is over…. February is well and truly here now. We can probably quit saying ‘happy new year’ and get on with it.
The first 2020 challenge was to 'Get your Mojo Back’ by choosing a theme or mantra for 2020. And after much consideration, and thinking about the various projects and activities I want to achieve, I have decided in order to make them happen, my mantra for 2020 is: ‘Think Bigger!’ And my strategy to make this happen is #JFDI! Just f@?king Do It!
Feeling a little flat or unmotivated going into 2020? Don't worry you're not alone!
You would not be alone if you feel a little low or challenged to kickstart the year with the usual excitement and enthusiasm that the new year normally provides. What we thought could help is some practical and empowering #challenges to kickstart 2020! To help us focus on where we want to improve, grow and challenge ourselves (personally and professionally).
Three simple words. Three simple words that can kickstart a conversation that can change a life.
Today is National R U OK Day, my favourite initiative we have in this country for so many reasons.
