An example of such fractures is that there now exist groups of people who can work from home and those who cannot, those who remained on payroll versus those furloughed. There are also those in different business units who have been impacted differently. Needless to say that the pandemic has scarred current generations, and that it will also affect future ones.
For that reason, I am truly appreciative of the fact that beyond handling the aftershocks of COVID-19, the focus of HR professionals is also on learning and development. These two elements add more value to organisations and help them muster resilience through capacity building.
