Join us in our 5-part season where we take a mid-decade moment to reflect on the hot topics around workplace cultures in reality (the good, the bad and the ugly). Taking a practical 'how to' approach we take a behind the scenes look at the modern realities of working life and what this means to thrive in the second half towards 2030. This first episode takes a look at the growing reality that there may not be a 'settling down' phase soon. Rather than that reality cause further stress, let’s reframe and accept it and remind ourselves of what we can do.
We explore how it is part of human nature to want to be able have certainty in our lives in order to predict circumstances and therefore increase our chances for survival/success. The challenge is that most industries, professions and sectors are still in a state of flux - or are about to head into further change. With change comes challenge as well as opportunity; and although we may know this on a logical level, it can affect us deeply at an emotional level. As many engagement surveys are suggesting, uncertainty can impact our sense of belonging, trust and willingness to continue putting in effort.
We share our FAR approach for helping self and others to keep focused on the long game, and to remind ourselves that the quicker we can accept something for what it is, the easier things will be for us. What's important is to maintain our personal standards and ethics as it is our reputation that will endure long after the current wave of change.
Rather than fighting the waves, grip onto that surfboard and remind ourselves just how valuable each day is.
