When I slow down, I see twice as much.Tara Brach
THE CONTEXT
It’s been a tough 6 months for many teams – working frantically and remotely in a void of uncertainty. The return to ‘normality’, heralded by the reopening of schools and some workplaces, can prompts an understandable urgency to rush back in, forge ahead and get back to ‘business as usual’.
But we cannot ignore that our lives have changed dramatically since Covid -19, it has upended reality as we understood it. For some, it has brought fresh opportunity, for others, survival challenges. For most, it has been a period of tension, stress and exhaustion which will continue for some time while difficult leadership decisions have to be made . Before forging ahead:
