Get 2021's Priorities & Predictions Report
Perhaps the most mentioned phrase of 2020 has been "when we return to normal."
Yes, after a year of utter lunacy, a return to normalcy may certainly be what we all need at this moment. However, a return to normal cannot mean that…
- The heightened attention to and collective resolve to make progress on economic, social, and racial inequities fade.
- People return to multi-hour work commutes every day.
- Time with friends and family are relegated only to early mornings, late nights, and weekends.
- The humanization of work is relegated to the trash bin.
The onus on us all is to not allow ourselves – in our desperate attempts to reclaim some semblance of normalcy – to under-estimate the cultural forces that fight the power of positive change. Despite the urge and ease to go back to our comfort zones, we must be crystal clear on the good that we want and/or need to keep.
And we must find the resolve to advance
and sustain the renovation that continues to build on the numerous silver linings
that surfaced in such a turbulent year.
