As we continue to navigate the pandemic, it is important to recognize that your employees have been on a roller coaster of emotions for a long period of time. You may already be doing it, but providing support to your people is critical to help them navigate stress and even grief. One critical way of navigating this is by being intentional in your communications with your people. Ask them how they are feeling, how they are doing, and if there is anything you can do to help them. Be intentional about listening to what they have to say. Communicate clearly, often, and consistently with what your organization is doing to navigate these uncertain times.
