Your Career and the COVID-19 pandemic

 How are you dealing with your career challenges in the midst of covid-19 pandemic? This happened unexpectedly. No one had ever prepared for a world-wide lockdown neither had a world-wide lockdown  happened before. Even large corporations didn't know what to do. One of the solutions adopted was to work from home or what is known as telecommuting. However, many employees found it difficult to adopt to that, resulting in many cases of depression. On the other end of the extreme were many people losing their jobs because there was a complete lockdown. The takehome from the whole episode was that employees need to be flexible and adaptable to changes. Although we know that the older one gets, the more difficult it is to be flexible and adaptable. The recommendation here is that companies should incorporate flexibility and adaptability training in their programs in order to prepare their workforce for situations like the covid-19 pandemic case.
