Here we go...


Whether we’re ready, or not, the move is on to loosen the Covid-19 related restrictions and open up communities and businesses. Whether we support this or not, many people will be anxious to go out and do things and go back to work, and others won’t. While there are all kinds of arguments for and against these things, the science is still clear and unequivocal: continue to be careful, consider wearing masks, and practice social distancing. Managers will be the key to making this work: have clear and unequivocal policies and discuss them with your employees, listen to their questions and concerns, be consistent when enforcing these policies, and follow the guidelines yourself. Don’t hesitate to rearrange office and workspaces to allow for appropriate distancing, enforce the proper wearing of masks if that’s in your policy, and be flexible when accommodating any exigencies that might occur during this transition. You’re responsible, and the best way to succeed is by helping others understand how they can succeed.  Be thoughtful, professional and creative to make this latest transition succeed today.
