RT 27 | Brave New World: A Conversation on COVID-19
It has been almost a year since the pandemic has started. COVID-19 has made us experience a lot of changes on the way we live and work. Lockdowns, physical distancing, and different and unlikely situations, especially in business. This pandemic has impacted every single individual, regardless of your social or economic position in life. But have you imagined what will happen to us after this COVID-19? Will it be back to normal, or it will permanently change everything?
In this episode of #REALTALK, our host Cherry Rose Tan, talks to us about forming a Brave New World, a term from the dystopian book by Aldous Huxley. Unless we conquer the breakdown of systems in our communities, there will be people who suffer. In this Brave New World, leaders must collaborate with one another and take action for the greater good. How do we have the conversations to move forward? What kind of planet do we want to leave the next generation?
Let’s keep going and work together, as we define a Post-Covid world.
