Resiliency

I recently read a quote that I wanted to share with you; Tough times don’t last. Tough people do. It seems like what we’ve all been through over the past six months should have certainly made us more resilient; however, there are times when we get thrown a curve ball that requires you to react and pivot quickly. I truly believe (and hope that you will agree) that your chapters provide you with a group of colleagues who can lift you up, support you and empathize with you. To me, this is why I’ve always felt so passionate about chapter structured organizations. The opportunity to be recognized, mentored and respected might not often happen at work, so especially during these challenging times, having someone who has got your back can really make a big difference. I encourage you to continue with the member care calls that were initiated in April, as these might be needed now, more than ever. Please know that the AGO has always got your back; that we are here to not only help you better serve your members, but also to just listen. Don’t go it alone.
