HUFFINGTON POST: Working Through Covid-19 Has Taught Us Compassion. That Needs To Last

Description

“When people are in crises like this, they do tend to band together,” says Marilyn Davidson, emerita professor of work psychology at the University of Manchester Business School. “I’m thinking of the Second World War. Terrible things happened then, people were threatened by death in the Blitz, but there was a great feeling of community and people would speak to each other in the street and help each other out.”

Once again, says Prof Davidson, we are experiencing “a common threat that has helped bring us together” – only this time with technology to connect us further.
