A few good morsels about the major threat within each of us in times such as the ones we're going through right now. All in a short piece, almost ideally sized for the web.
The takeaway?
The cause and effect have not been fully sorted out, but the
implication is that when our brains sense pain, or anticipate loss, we
tend to hold onto what we have. When everyone does this at once, the
result is a downward economic spiral.
For once, go against your kneejerk reaction, against your instinct. Helping your people and clients/partners get over fear next year is probably going to be the most valuable kind of contribution you can bring to the table. And the most rewarded.
