THERE ARE VERY
FEW AREAS IN OUR
LIFE THAT HAVEN’T
BEEN IMPACTED
BY THE COVID-19
PANDEMIC
INCLUDING YOUR MONTHLY EDITION OF CCN MAGAZINE.
Sandra Van Dijk – Editor
THAT ISN’T A typo on the front cover this really is the June/July edition of CCN which will be followed by the August/September edition.
Despite a reduction in print issues, CCN’s online newsletters have doubled with readers receiving two e-newsletters per week instead of one.
Our commitment to keeping readers in- formed with all the latest HVACR news re- mains unchanged.
It is the same with our planned calendar of events, if we cannot be in the same room then we will provide a virtual experience which is exactly what we have planned for our NextGen launch in August. It will be a virtual extravaganza.
Hopefully by the time we host CCN Live on No- vember 12, 2020 we can return to normal scheduling. Many of the new working norms we have creat- ed since the pandemic began may be here to stay,
even when there is a vaccine.
I know many of us abandoned the 9 to 5 working
day a long time ago, but its death has been incredi- bly long, slow and drawn out (it has taken decades). Leave it in the past it doesn’t belong in a modern
world it’s as archaic as peak-hour travel.
Business hours need to be determined by your customer base that means being available for them. It is also about productivity, we don’t all per- form at our best at 6am or even 6pm which is why
we should mix it up.
Adopt staggered work hours, spend part of the
week in the office and the rest at home or else- where. Re-imagine your working lives without the 9 to 5 shackles and peak-hour panic.
Let’s keep all the good habits we’ve acquired during the pandemic like better hygiene and fewer meetings. Let go of the past permanently.
