WHAT LIES AHEAD

A message from Cynthia Jiles, Assistant Executive Director, Human Resources

MESSAGE FROM HUMAN RESOURCES

C haos breeds necessity which in turn breeds opportunity — as better stated by Sun Tzu, “In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity.” Coronavirus has changed the way we work, the way we shop, the way we play, the way we interact, and the way we plan our futures. Our challenge is to successfully pivot the negative impact of current circum- stances toward community, regional, and global opportunities. What are you open to? Since March 2020, our society has battled “this invisible enemy.” And as you know, strategy is a huge element in mastering any battle. What you may not realize is that you have strategized your interactions most every day since the onset of this pandemic. Now pivot. What have you changed, improved, and learned? Opportunity can assume many forms. Take those, even the most minute, and strategize on how you and those around you can benefit from what you have learned. We each have something to offer from our varied life experiences. Life is less uncertain when you grab hold of your ability to recover. And know that each new second, minute, hour and day is opportunity to do something different. What lies ahead is a resilient you—that person who will encourage, motivate, and inspire others.
