The spread of COVID-19 has caused many people around the world to change their everyday lives. We’ve been asked to help “flatten the curve” to avoid a spike in cases that would overwhelm our health services. For some of us, this means that we have to self-isolate, and for others, it means working from home for the foreseeable future. Some of us continue going to workplaces because of the essential nature of our work, while still others may face the prospect of job loss.
These are all difficult situations, and everyone has their own response to stress. This is a good time to remember, however, that you have resilience skills and you can cope.
Our guest in this episode of the HRchat show is Bobby Umar, CEO of DYPB - Discover Your Personal Brand. Bobby suggests that "we are now in the 'Eye of the Storm' and doing our best to navigate the uncertainty, overwhelm and changing workplace and business cultures".
Bobby Umar is one of the most prolific heart-based leaders in North America. Inc. Magazine named him one of the Top 100 Leadership Speakers, is a 5 x TEDx speaker and a top global B2B influencer: with over 500,000 followers.
