Recommendation

The “New Normal” has turned into the buzzword du jour – but what does it mean? Is the world really going to settle into a new routine following the disruptions of the COVID-19 pandemic? Author and executive coach Paolo Gallo believes this to be unlikely. In a thought-piece that is both visionary and unsettling, he makes the case for referring to the post-pandemic world as the “New Context,” dominated by five forces the world will need to reckon with. Learn what they are – and how they may open up the door for creating a better world. 

Take-Aways

  • The “New Normal,” as a concept, has been around for a while and does not properly describe the post-COVID-19 reality.
  • Five characteristics – the “5Cs” – will define the post-pandemic “New Context”: “Chaos, Crisis, Complexity, Confusion and Change.”
  • The New Context offers the opportunity to reset the current system that has failed to serve the majority of the world’s population.
