We can all agree that the pandemic has radically shifted certain workforce trends.   I am not talking about just working virtually.  Some of us have begun to acquire skills we never dreamt we were capable of. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prior to the pandemic, a major part of my life would be spent flexing my calendar so as not to miss out on any invitations (business or personal).    When the lockdown started, I felt like a cheetah living in a tortoise shell.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the weeks moved on, I nervously moved my business and social activities onto the virtual platforms.   I was tapered into expressing my huge personality through a laptop screen.  Then there was the nervous navigation into all other social media platforms, blogging and creating videos.  I have never felt more regulated and grounded as a human being, as the new way of work became normal to me.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are all so vastly different as human beings – every individual has had their own experiences.    To give us more context, let us look at a new survey done by PwC<\/u><\/strong>.  The sample consists of 32,500 workers in 19 countries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this survey, 60 % of people believe that automation is putting many jobs at risk; 48 % believe ‘traditional employment won’t be around in the future’ and 39 % think it is likely that their job will be obsolete within 5 years.  The research further states that 77 % are ‘ready to learn new skills or completely re-train’ and 74 % see training as a matter of personal responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We all wake up to a clean canvas every day.  Every day is a new opportunity.  Dare to use the colors and paint your story. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Act Now!!!! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
