We’re taking time towards the end of the year, with a ton of optimism and hope, to see what went right this year.
What better time than now to look back at what the year meant to us all?
It is in that spirit that we started the #WhatWeDon'tSee series on Linkedin, particularly to mark the progress that we cannot quite see yet, but holds promise nevertheless.
For one, the festive season and the accompanying retail outlook offer green shoots of hope. While demand is at significantly lower levels than what it was in the years gone by, doors have been opened for smaller businesses to make their mark. A conscious customer demands a conscious retailer, and small businesses have the agility to adapt to this new need. Read the full post here.
Then, there's also the topic of hiring and jobs. For many of us, this was the first time we looked at our LinkedIn profiles and considered using digital media to find work. The results have been heartening to see. In fact, if you need some mid-week motivation, all you need to do is look at #LookingForWork on LinkedIn and the sheer amount of organic responses will warm your heart. More on this here.
It is time then, to curl up indoors, grab a hot cup of cocoa, and give thanks for the green shoots of hope. That's exactly what we hope to do at Above N Beyond this festive season.
In the world's most impossible year, what are you most thankful for?
Team Above N Beyond
