Covid, Pandemic , Unprecedented times – Now that I have got your attention let me assuage
you that I am not going to be a harbinger of bad news imapt the number of soothsayers
and crystal ball gazers have increased, and my attempt is not to venture into that territory
at all. Situation has caught us off guard and we are going through testing / trying period in
human history. How we deal with it will determine our future as a collective human race.
Therefore, it will be stupid on my part to predict the future.
However, crisis always makes us look hard at our current practices, take a deep look at
shifting behaviors and help us measure our own relevance with the changing world.
Companies/ people who are able to demonstrate this adaptability and course correct always
thrive. I was recently called upon to learn and interact with academia who are always
thinking ahead on such matters to discuss this issue at large. In the course of this writing I
would like to present my views on this issue.
