\"\"J<\/strong><\/span>ust like our computers at times in our culture , as well as in our lives, we just need a \u201creset\u201d\u2014to start fresh, to operate better, to function properly. These moments of awareness that \u201csomething is off\u201d, or \u201cwe can do better\u201d signal a huge opportunity for positive change.\u00a0 For all of us, in large and small ways, it can also be a mourning for the loss of what we thought we had, or loved, and what is now just not working.\u00a0 This is the time of acknowledging the massive changes in our world, realizing the discontent, as well as the opportunity, in our times, asking us if we can do better, should we do better, can we do better?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

RESET in our time is both a demand, and an opportunity, to embrace change<\/b><\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

We can no longer just say everything is about \u201cCOV-19\u201d and hope for returning to the proverbial \u201cnormal\u201d.\u00a0 \u00a0The shock of the invasion and war in Ukraine has quickly changed our focus.\u00a0 Change has occurred, and but those of us that watch, know that change has been occurring all along, COV-19 was an accelerant to that change–and perhaps now higher gas prices–set by our own producers–is now. I am not talking about masking up, or giving up, but small and large changes that point to a massive shift in how we live, what we want, what we are willing to do as we live our lives going forward.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

Perhaps a more clear realization that life is short, as we all have taken in so much death and sadness, but realizing now with some urgency, what we do matters.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

The Great Resignations?\u00a0 At this time, 50% of Wisconsin women and a slightly lesser percentage of men,\u00a0 are actively considering a new path in their work\/life balance. Many of us are coming to realize that balance is key. It isn\u2019t easy for most women to make these determinations, and there isn’t consistency for all women either\u2013we all have different needs, family situations, resources, abilities, inclinations and training.\u00a0 Recent U.S. Labor Department data indicates that nationwide, resignations are hitting an all-time high, for instance, at 4.5 million in two consecutive months (August\/September 2021), which is a significant jump.\u00a0 While this may be concerning to some, and might in some circumstances be related, recent surveys indicate otherwise, that perhaps something greater is happening in culture itself, priorities are being realigned, questions about what actually makes a happy, or sustainable life, and world,\u00a0 are coming into focus.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

\"\"Although surveys and data from a variety of sources offer clues, the picture might actually be\u00a0 bigger, as well as the solutions required to stabilize.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

The ability to work remotely and the emergence of flex office time\u00a0<\/b><\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

Flexible work accommodates life, and is a game changer for many.\u00a0 As in most things, it is a double edged sword\u2014the cutting edge of juggling too much at home, from care of family to too much isolation, and challenges to focus and space needs of creating a remote office. Corporations that can navigate addressing these issues for their teams will be the ones to reap the benefits of a motivated, committed workforce.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

The Service Sector needs a reset<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

In the struggling service sector, which has evolved into a major sector of American industry in the last 30 years thanks to the erosion of manufacturing type careers,\u00a0 it is a different story.\u00a0 Years ago, it was common to make a commitment to the restaurant wait staff in terms of time and dates working, rather than a more common situation recently of \u201con call\u201d staffing, which creates havoc and cost for those employees just to work, as this affects childcare, commuting expense, and real income. What was once a great entry level pathway to learning new skills and gaining experience is now a bit more problematic, and given more of us are choosing to get take out or go out in lieu of cooking at home, demand is high. Life requires planning, and on call staffing doesn\u2019t allow for that. From a worker standpoint, challenges abound in creating a workable stable family environment, and dealing with attending to appointments for school and health.\u00a0 Changing these service job relationships back to a more considerate relationship from both customers and business owners will keep workers that will make a career choice to do these jobs, or for those on the first rung of the ladder.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

Do we really need all this stuff?<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

Flexibility is key, but piling on the work can also backfire.\u00a0 One management level friend explained her experience with working at home during the pandemic\u2019s early times as suddenly becoming almost a 24\/7 expectation of handling a department with an increase in work without the increase in employees to do the work.\u00a0 Good news for the business, which made her team incredibly productive (and stressed) as they dealt with a huge jump in demand for their product fueled by increased consumption in general .\u00a0 We too have contributed to our own \u201csupply chain\u201d issues as we have all clicked our way to satisfaction in the past few years. Now, as the team transitions to being in the office, that level of productivity is now the expectation, and is ridiculously not sustainable from a variety of perspectives.\u00a0 All good for the corporate bottom line,\u00a0 but also inappropriate for a work and life balance. \u00a0 Flex time works, but it cannot become a trade off of even more onerous work load.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

Smart corporations are working with their associates to attend to this balance, and also striving to maintain team culture and those all important informal connections. Old school corporate types that aren\u2019t striving to change and adapt are struggling to find great team member, or finding them looking for greener pastures. \u00a0 Flexible working conditions also work for young careerists who have stood up and asked loudly, \u201cis THIS all there is?\u201d\u00a0 as well as older adults managing care and accountability for young, old, or disabled loved ones. These too are the people who are exhaustingly saying \u201cI CANNOT do it all \u2013and I want a better life than this!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

So the reset is here.\u00a0 No surprise.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

A better life\u2013why not?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\r\n

Why does this issue matter so much?\u00a0 It isn\u2019t just about \u201cmaking lazy workers happier and paying them more\u201d.\u00a0 It is about the realities of our policies, individual desires, and governmental and corporate life that shapes our time here on earth.<\/strong>\u00a0 The question is, \u201cWhy CAN\u2019T we all have a better life\u2013a pathway that is livable as we adjust working our way up through small and large jobs. Why can\u2019t we work really hard, and have balance as well?\u00a0 To be clear, I am not advocating that a \u201cBetter Life\u201d has anything to do with sharing all the wealth or being\u00a0 monetarily \u201crich\u201d.\u00a0 A better life means balance\u2013humane policies, balancing who each of us are\u00a0 in the context of a sustainable life in this world while attempting to balance the need to be contributors to society and to our own families.\u00a0 We have to encourage the thrill of working and being,\u00a0 as well as the mindset of helping one another navigate life when tough times make doing so impossible.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

RESET Caregiving for our elderly, our disabled, our children<\/b><\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

Caregiving is both big business, a huge need, and also a limited resource for many that either need, or want, to ensure positive care to their loved ones.\u00a0 Facilities are expensive, or nonexistent for many, and also many families can provide the best care possible, but at a cost to the caregiver that is not earning.\u00a0 Flexibility is key, but also dealing with the realities that trying to do too much is not ideal.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

The industry of caring for others is in a crisis situation, as these jobs have often not paid as well (and for loved ones who take on this challenge\u2013 not at all) as they should be paid, despite the incredibly important work and need for caring, skilled, and reliable staffing.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

RESET to Promotions Matter\u2013Higher income or additional benefits and skills to be won<\/b><\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

\u00a0We are all, as workers producing results for others, realizing our worth.\u00a0 And asking ourselves, can we do better?\u00a0 Better career moves, which result in more compensation, more life work balance, and, let\u2019s face it, a better fit.\u00a0 So that means, more people are \u201cmoving on up\u201d, but does that also mean more people are getting on the ladder at starter jobs?<\/i><\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

Not necessarily.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

New technologies, and new expectations for young and old are pushing for change, and tech makes it easier to achieve income in ways unthought of just a decade ago. Additionally, expectations for all workers have changed\u2013a better balance of work and life, more flexibility, and that means promotions for the skilled. The need for internships and apprenticeship programs are necessary for so many skilled positions that require training.\u00a0 The rise of gig work life for entrepreneurs, volunteers, and those not easily fitting in professional roles or based on their current skillset also allows for a new way to gain experience and skills..\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

RESET Governmental, Corporate Polices and Cultural Norms<\/b><\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

In the case of what must be located here for the most part, Agriculture, and particularly big Ag is a monopoly that also needs some overhauls. It is not because suddenly front line ag workers are making so much money in the field these days that your food costs are rising. It is more so the issue of a monopoly on processing.\u00a0 An unfettered monopoly\u00a0 is a governmental policy failure that is just not being enforced.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

All agricultural units rely on demanding, skilled work and many of those working are immigrants,bringing with them the desire to work at, for many Americans, at less than desirable jobs. Our immigration policies can and should be dealt with\u2013allowing for safe and secure borders, AND the ability to have skilled agricultural workers (immigrating here as seasonal workers or striving to become or being\u00a0 American citizen).\u00a0 These people are doing those critical jobs that should mean living wages.\u00a0 Those industries, and policies, that keep us stuck in the past will need to adjust\u2013and adjust as well our incentives for attracting young Americans to this vital industry so a good living can be earned,\u00a0 a pathway to ownership of land is possible for the next generation, ideally resulting in a work and life balance.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

Entertainment vs. Skills<\/b><\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

Our policies about nurturing fresh young and old workers willing to handle (perceived) less appealing jobs also needs to change. American culture abdicated its own freedoms over 30 years ago as corporate giants decided to compete in the world with their products by relocating overseas, reducing their costs, and American jobs were lost.\u00a0 In that time, we also embraced the culture of primarily entertaining ourselves and consuming cheap goods at the expense of teaching ourselves what we need to know to survive. Recapturing the idea that work experience and skill accumulation will be rewarded, and is a sustainable path must occur.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

We became both service industry dependent, and entertainment addicted.\u00a0 So much so that schemes to make income in 2022 have resulted in servicing that addiction, as a way to profit from it\u2014such as via YouTube, TikTok, and reality show competitions. This isn\u2019t new, and is ironically a throwback to the Great Depression when so many earned money via competitions requiring to win\u2014to be the last one standing after an excruciating effort would win the prize.\u00a0 Meanwhile, the country is literally drugging, shooting, flooding and burning itself to death, while we watch the screens, fascinated with the wreckage.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

If we are smart enough, RESET doesn\u2019t mean \u201cI can\u2019t get workers\u201d to work!\u00a0 RESET means we adjust, we adapt, we change and embrace ways to a sustainable future, and leave behind shortsighted behaviors, policies and norms that really don\u2019t serve us individually, or as society, any longer.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

The RESET is actually a Win Win\u2013short term for many\u2013long term for all<\/b><\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

Change is hard is the old saying.\u00a0 Which is incredibly ironic because change is constant, and it is not only doable, it is the thing that keeps us alive, thriving, and interested in the world.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

So, short term, you may resent the way you aren\u2019t hanging out in crowded restaurants any more, or being asked to mask up in some situations, but perhaps you are appreciating your family in ways you never imagined.\u00a0 Perhaps you are stressed out about your new promotion or business, but realize that you have freedoms you did not enjoy previously.\u00a0 Maybe you are frustrated that \u201cthing\u201d you ordered tooks months (and in some cases, a year!) to arrive, but perhaps you are realizing that you could still survive without it.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

The Great Reset is not just \u201cgetting used to a post COV-19 normal\u201d, but maybe it is the greatest opportunity and shake up we all needed to consider larger questions about our place in the world as individuals and as a society.\u00a0 By taking on the challenge to direct change, not just \u201cadjust to it\u201d–hitting that RESET button by doing what is needed to make that reset happen is actually the best thing that could happen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

That is good for you, your family, and the world.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
