With new waves of COVID-19 infections hitting countries across the world, we are left to wonder what post-pandemic life will look like and how countries will find its way back to normality – whatever shape and form this normality may take.
One thing for sure…the world after COVID-19 is unlikely to return to the world that was. Many trends that were already underway in the economy before the pandemic struck are being accelerated by the impact of the pandemic. Understanding the changing nature of risks and trends that are shaping the global economic recovery is critical for businesses to design and develop appropriate strategies in sync with the changing world.

As we come out of the pandemic and move on towards recovery, what is the biggest question you’re asking yourself? I doubt things will ever feel exactly the same as they were before covid, and maybe that is OK.
As for me, I’m taking a lesson from Buddha who famously said, “Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.” Revel in the moment.
