Are you starting to have a love-hate relationship with Zoom? As we replace in-person meetings with video calls, we are definitely spending more time in front of a screen both for work and for connecting with family and friends.

As the industrial age gives way to a new digital world, leaders are having to confront change on a larger scale and at a faster pace than ever before. Workplaces, teams, and networks are becoming more and more distributed and require organizations to radically rethink the practices and policies that made them effective in the past.
If this time is challenging your ability to stay connected and productive at work, seek support. At Integrated Work, we have worked virtually for quite some time, and this pandemic is calling upon us to up our game and to deploy additional strategies to help keep us moving forward and positive.
While some of us go through the exercise of identifying our values and then assessing how our behaviors and choices measure up, it’s our gut, our heartstrings, and our thoughts that serve as a barometer for knowing when we hit or miss our integrity target, regardless of whether we’ve clearly identified our values.
Our first value at Integrated Work is to care for one another as humans first. High-quality relationships are the foundation of our success. We bring our full selves to what we do – that is how we unleash creativity, and commitment to progress. Establishing that as a baseline has been key to our long-term collaborations with staff clients, contractors and partners.
