After over a year of navigating a global pandemic without a playbook, a return to in-person collaboration and team gatherings (and hugs!) is finally in sight. Many organizations, including our own, are thinking about if and how they’ll reopen their offices and reunite their teams. We know the future of work has been accelerated, and the way we work is more global and connected than ever.

It’s tough to keep any team aligned—whether distributed, remote, or in office—but marketing teams can face particularly unique challenges. With so many different functions, tools, and channels in the marketing world, moving quickly, efficiently, and with everyone on the same page sometimes feels like an impossible task.

When it comes to starting a business, many entrepreneurs are drawn to the freedom of earning money on their terms. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t come without its challenges. One of the most common struggles we face is finding an adequate work-life balance. Anyone who is an entrepreneur knows and understands the many hats you have to wear and the tasks you have to juggle each day, especially when you’re starting out.

The past year has been a year of adversity. From the pandemic to racial injustice, many people have been faced with multiple types of adversity. And while there are societal changes that need to happen to overcome these challenges, there’s a lot we can do as individuals to fight adversity within an imperfect system.

Extreme stress is now an all too familiar component of work. Last year, 71% of workers felt burnt out at least once.

This elevated stress and pressure is a clear sign of the times.
