How are you all doing?

Steve Bridger

The tweet below prompted me to ask this question. You are so busy. You may be feeling undervalued.  

It has been two years since Samantha asked this question, which generated a wonderfully open and supportive conversation days before the first lockdown.

 Are any other HR people feeling a bit lonely in all this :( 

So much has happened since then and while in some ways the pandemic accelerated a pre-exisiting direction of travel with regards remote working and technology, so much was new - not least 'furlough', which we were all talking about here. But there have also been deep structural changes and challenges - for example, in recruitment and retention. Now many of you are considering how you can support employees through the cost-of-living crisis. 

Amid all this, we need to look after ourselves and support one another - our peers. 

So... how are you doing?

  • @becci Lloyd. Couldn’t agree more, I work full time from home and the isolation has been a real shock to my system. I am seriously considering another role just so I can return to hybrid. There unfortunately isn’t any office space for me to be hybrid in my current role, and most of my team love being fully remote. I’m really feeling the impact from a personal point of view..I feel most jobs are now mostly remote or a few are hybrid. For some people it works so well for work life balance but if it doesn’t work for you, then you just have to adapt. It’s mixed feelings really as I wouldn’t love being fully office based; hybrid for 2-3 days in the office would be great for me, with the team committing to the same.
