Philosophy
Work is meaningful when the personal is consistent with the professional, when individual, organizational and social objectives are aligned, and when one feels completely authentic and is able to contribute to the best of their abilities and in the service of others.
This does not need to happen by accident! There is science and art involved in enhancing this heady mix - and Psymantics Consulting can help!
Leading and working in Uncertain Times
The year 2020 has seen a remarkable constellation of unprecedented events occurring together - the global pandemic, economic uncertainty, sociopolitical mayhem and mistrust around the world, as well as natural disasters, rising social inequalities and the realization that old assumptions about work and life will have to be urgently re-examined.
As we stumble through these uncertainties, applied psychology has a few ideas and research-based solutions to offer:
Leadership is less about a facade of bravado, and more about empathy and deliberate, scientific and mature thinking
Inclusion and inclusive leadership is no longer a ‘nice to have’ - it is the factor that could make or break organizations’ chances of coming out stronger
Resilience, mental health and anti-fragility (i.e. improving through stress) are no longer just buzzwords, but the need of the hour
Bias and mistrust are likelier to emerge under stress - and that is why creating climates of psychological safety and trust, and building agility and accountability in work design are more critical for individual and organizational success
