These Covid times are fun-killers. Many of the ways we’re used to having fun are limited or unavailable. Travel. Music events. Sports. Bars and restaurants. Taking kids to amusement parks. Getting together with other hobbyists.
What’s there to do except work more?
This is very dangerous for leaders.
Workaholism leads to boredom, which leads to the death of new ideas. Organizations shrivel without new ideas and re-creation.
I challenge you to find avenues as stimulating and fun as your best days “at work.” You’ll discover that many of your best ideas come while you’re having fun.
Make fun a priority, for the sake of your organization, and so you can thrive.
