In pandemic times, it’s good to follow the advice from that well-known Wartime reminder that people have pinned up in their workstation:

KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON.

In our workplace, however, we should take more care, and question our surroundings more critically.

If your organization has been working remotely during COVID, we know that everything changes, and we are not going back to normal.

The new normal that emerges will be different. We will NOT carry on as before.

However, we will handle those changes, big or small, with a clear eye, a deep breath, and a kind smile.

Disorganizers keep calm, but don’t carry on.

This Much We Know.
