Certainly, by developing the knowledge and skills we need to take our businesses forward, we as professionals will attain the respect that our profession has always deserved.
Unsurprisingly, one of the most contentious topics for most professionals right now, are the many ways that we can manage home workers, the correct procedures for furlough, and how to grapple with such widespread change.
Without doubt, it’s a complicated world right now, and the best that any of us can do is to reach out and collaborate more. Together we can rise up, and take the profession up with us.
