Victim or Victor: Checkpoint 1, what we have noticed in the period from July 1, 2020 to August 15, 2020

8/16/2020

0 Comments

 
45 days ago we shared our vision that navigating your personal, family, and work lives in this pandemic period could benefit from having a NorthStar heading of 1/1/2022.

Where do you want to be on that day and what do you want your world to look like?

This is our first checkpoint follow up with a few things we have noticed, and some questions we have been asked.
​
These are bulleted below for your ready reference.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What we have noticed.
  • The virus didn't pack up and leave this summer.
  • We all have collectively failed the famous Stanford Psychology study "marshmallow test" on delayed gratification.
  • Law makers and leaders don't have a playbook for the pandemic and realize that sharing that will increase the chances they are removed, so information is doled out slowly.
  • Our phase 3 trial process in the US will mean we are slower to vaccinate our population relative to other countries (we value 1 life here more than other countries)
  • Covid 20, 21 etc are anyone's guess and could extend this period to be the entire decade of the 2020's. (remember polio impacted the US from 1894 to 1955) 61 years!
  • The noise around what is true will get louder and louder between now and the general election in early November, plan accordingly.
  • There is massive opportunity for positive growth inside families, nonprofits and businesses during this period, and it begins with letting go of what worked in the past. (what works now?)
  • Lamenting the changes and the perceived negative outcomes for different sub-groups like "children under the age of 5" can snowball and paralyze your team, 
  • (touchstone phrases matter) The link has a few from General Jim Mattis whose recent book "Learning to Lead" is our book of the year so far. 

That is what we noticed, what about you?
