Bal's Friday Thought

Bal’s Friday Thought…

There’s a few things that Covid-19 Lockdown has taught us… in fact, it’s accelerated some things that were coming.

The evolution of the employee.

How we work.

And we’ve been able to evolve due to technology but also a shift in the mindset. A shift in thinking that is allowing us to add more value and be more productive.

Two examples I’d like to share,

  1. I recall seeing in a signature of a senior leader, something along the lines of….. “I’m sending this email because this time works for me, if this is out of your working hours, I do not expect a reply”.
  2. I recently undertook some learning – via LinkedIn Learning app. I did it in the evening. In my own time. And it was in short bursts.. about 10 videos each of which were 3 to 4mins long. It taught me a lot. In fact, made me do some ‘homework’ and really make me think.

That’s what it is about, right? – Learn, Think… Apply.

Would be great to hear example you may have, in terms of how you’re becoming an employee of the future…
