It requires conscientious behavior, flexibility, empathy and leading by example. Both experts also touched mental health issues that are currently experienced by workers, leaders and managers.
Laura explained how leaders in Bite are coping with stress and leading their teams through this crisis. She emphasized that top management serves as a role model for all other employees and shares their daily routines with other employees.
