Decade of Courage Manifesto
Flexibility is vital. Whether your business is an emerging start-up or a longstanding conglomerate, adapting to new realities helps you stay ahead of the competition. And as our lives are increasingly spent online, it’s time to ask: is your workplace built to adapt?
As a response to the global pandemic, we set out a powerful manifesto outlining the decisions companies must make to thrive in the current digital landscape. Before the outbreak began, we knew that change was needed in the way we work. The rise of automation, growing climate awareness, and shifting politics all meant that a new way of living was upon us.
The arrival of COVID-19 only shifted our ideas to the forefront of our new reality.
As the pandemic has unfolded, many companies have been forced to find a ‘new normal’ – and made the considerations in our manifesto more pressing than ever.
Even before COVID-19 hit, a strong online presence and a willingness to adapt were essential components of a resilient business. Since then, we’ve been forced to make big decisions about the way we work. Red tape has been torn down as businesses fight to survive. Employers reconsider heading back to the office. Companies focus on their online platforms. And workers discover the unexpected perks of working remotely.
While we’ve all been adjusting to this new way of work, we’re left to address the future – what’s worth keeping and what can be left behind?
So, now is the time to recalibrate. As a decade of change lies ahead of us, stay ahead of the curve and discover the future of working with our Decade of Courage Manifesto.
