Concept of New Home Office

India and many other countries are under locked down for more than a month now. IT companies were already tuned to work form homes even before this pandemic; but other companies, especially, manufacturing companies, never thought of this idea, even remotely. In fact, there was no need and no occasion for it. Those who are involved in Healthcare sector did not think at all. School and Colleges were known for "Attendance Criteria" even for getting Admit Card for examination.  

The current pandemic, whether you like or not, forced everybody to get confined in home and that too now, almost 35 days. The most developed countries are finding it difficult to cope with the challenge of Wuhan Virus. As on day, no vaccination is in sight. Treatment is given in hospital world over based on some assumptions and apparently those treatment is responding, like Hydrochloroquine etc. 

Healthcare providers, scientist, researches, pharmaceutical companies are trying there level best to quickly find the vaccine and remedial drug, but God knows when success will come. 

However, as soon as possible, countries will have to take risk and allow to lift locked down, to begin with partially, at least. Actually, this unexpected calamity has forced everybody to face life differently. All businesses, schools and colleges and "Non-Core" aspects of every enterprise have to be re-looked and it is necessary to explore whether such "Non-Core", I am not saying "Non-Essential", activities can be planned, organised and executed form a distant physical locations. Some schools and colleges have already started started exploring this, but whether it can be made a new way of learning, working and living. 

To explore this, organizations need to involve external Facilitators to conduct "Brainstorming Creative" sessions for organizations. That will definitely lead to newer ways and methods of doing business, and may be with lesser costs involved, 

It is necessary because, suddenly, every organisation will start facing cash crunch. This funds shortage may adversely affect the quality of product and services, indirectly, if not directly. 

Now, therefore, instead of waiting for the normalisation, organisation will have to take initiative, NOW and approach the External Facilitator, to commence through Digital Session, so that the disrupted communication with employees will resume and employees will also think that they are involved in organization's policy making. Another benefit of such initiative will be that people will get accustomed with this type of distant Non-Physical working. More you work, more ideas will flow in. Everybody is creative innovator. Man has in-built flexibility to adopt to changed environment and situations. This is already substantiated by the evolution of a man. 

Those who awake and arise NOW, will be forerunners and those who continue in deep slumber will miss the opportunity of self-renewal and growth.   
Awake and Arise for Innovation

My Responsibility for Social Change

The advent of Corona Virus globally compelled many parts of the society everywhere to reflect what will be going to change. What needs to be changed? And when? These are all complex questions cropping up in the minds of people, who think they are responsible for society and nation. 

In society, in all ages, there are three types of people. First, who watch the change. Second, who do not understand what is happening, and third, who make, shape and modify the change beneficial to society. 

All rational thinking people, should spring into action, scan the situation, retrieve old data-bases and plunge into action; because, if everybody thinks that somebody will do it, may be nobody will do anything. Instead of waiting for somebody to tell us what to do, let us decide what is best in the interest of the society and nation and start doing it. Doing something worthwhile is always better than doing nothing.    

Rejuvenating Employees

Rejuvenating Employees

Wuhan Virus pandemic has adversely affected whole world, across all continents. It is true that some smaller countries are affected either or affected comparatively less. The period of locked down, in some countries started earlier and in some countries later. Irrespective of this, the duration is not less than a month anywhere. 

There is no vaccine in sight as on date. It may take a year approximately. Its origin is not yet confirmed. Scientist are trying their level best to detect its source etc. Still medical fraternity is treating patients o n some experimental basis, which means it may relapse again. Even the social distancing may last up to 2022, latest report says so.

Once the infection of Wuhan Virus is arrested somehow, may be normal activities will be allowed in phased manner with certain restrictions and precautions. Remaining quarantined for such a long time will be, must be affecting the minds of people certainly. So, when all industries and businesses will resume their normal functioning, employees, irrespective of their level or education, shall not be free form anxiety and stress.

It will be required to have a very powerful "Affirmative and Inspiring" well structured program. Therefore, all professional engaged in healthcare, counseling, psychotherapy are required to help various organizations to cope up with this unprecedented challenge to humanity.
