In the fast-moving wheels of the economy, we must provide ourselves with brief moments to alight. Just as drivers in a speeding vehicle cannot ignore fatigue, today’s employees and leaders cannot ignore the state of their minds.

The current business environment is undergoing a profound shift, especially for organizations that previously maintained cordial partnerships with the government through public-private partnerships.
