What Dr. Doll can say in an interview on
Adapting to the Accelerating Work & Life Pace:
-
- The state of the workplace now is described as VUCA-volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous.
- We are living in an unstable time of rapid change, uncertainty, confusion, and the reality that much of it we can’t control.
- This makes it challenging to plan, prepare, or anticipate the consequences of our actions; therefore, it generates fear. Humans do not like feeling as though they have control.
-
- We are experiencing information overload, creating static and noise.
- We have old ways of operating in a new world that is incomplete and insufficient. We are on our heels and we need to upgrade our operating systems.
- A new acronym has been created (Jamais Cascio) to describe changes brought about by COVID-19: BANI.
BANI stands for:
-
- B = Brittle We are susceptible to catastrophe at any time.
- A = Anxious Anxiety is one of the most present symptoms today.
- N = Nonlinear Events seem disconnected and disproportionate, making long-term planning a challenge.
- I = Incomprehensible Unprecedented times that aren’t making sense.
-
- The answer: Enhancing our psychological fitness. Focusing on what we CAN control, what is in our sphere of influence, accepting what is, and letting go of resisting what we don’t like.
