My experience on the challenges of operating during COVID 19 – juggling family commitments, supporting clients, supporting others, my team and business.
The pro’s and con’s
2020 was a year like no other, and the COVID-19 pandemic has brought unprecedented challenges both personally and professionally. In my business, Purpose HR, we retained our existing team of 6, hired one new employee and also onboarded a part time intern. We engaged 15 new retained clients, pivoted our consultancy services business model to fully remote and virtual, set up home offices, advised clients on downsizing, restructuring, redundancies, growth strategies and hiring, and even got up to speed with new schemes such as Furlough and the Job Support Scheme. For me this was all whilst home schooling two young children aged 3 and 8. Many of my team who are also working parents were in similar circumstances.
