Читать книгу Leading with Empathy - Gautham Pallapa - Страница 19

COVID-19 disrupted people's social relationships and the ways they used to connect with their loved ones. Some people felt isolated physically and emotionally, and others felt more connected to their families, friends, and social networks than they typically do. The ban on personal gatherings promoted the unconventional activities of maintaining social distancing, such as birthday parades on birthday parties or balcony sing-along for concerts. Awkward socially distanced get-togethers in cul-de-sacs or front yards substituted socializing at bars or favorite hangouts. Driveway or drive-by conversations replaced meeting friends and chatting. Children were continuously cautioned to be six feet apart, don their masks, and not have physical contact during playdates.
