¿Invierno o Verano?

Istwa sa a genyen pou wè ak 2 pèsonaj enpòtan nan fòlklò ayisyen; Bouki ak Malis.  Yo genyen anpil enpòtans nan imajinè ak kilti ayisyen. Yon ekriven ameriken ki rele Amy MacDonald te ekri istwa a an anglè "Please, Malese!", epi yon lòt ameriken ki rele Bèta Hays te fè tradiksyon an an kreyòl ayisyen "Tanpri, Malis".

A record 78% of Japanese people feel anxious or worried, according to a new government survey.

That's the highest proportion in the 43 years the government has been asking people about these feelings.

Common worries among the adults who took part included health, life after retirement, and future income. Almost 64% of people said they're worried about their health, while 63% said they're worried about what their lives will look like after they stop working.

This was quite a small survey, however, and it was done by mail, with only 1,830 people across the country taking part.

Previous surveys have been done in person, and the government said people should be cautious before making comparisons between this year's survey and those done in the past.

But the survey did find that people in Japan are a little happier with their finances this year than they were in 2023.

However, 66% of people said they think the government should do more to combat inflation.

It's not just in Japan that people are anxious. Other reports have found that this is a real problem around the world.

At the end of 2023, almost half of young workers from seven countries said they found it difficult to work because they were so worried about what they saw in the news. Many felt they were living in a time of uncertainty, with wars happening across the world and geopolitical tensions rising.

Understanding Change Management
Change management is an essential discipline for organizations facing the ever-changing business environment. It involves a structured approach to transitioning individuals, teams, and organizations from a current state to a desired future state. This can include changes in company culture, internal processes, technology, infrastructure, and corporate hierarchy.

There are two primary types of organizational change:

Adaptive Changes: These are incremental adjustments that organizations make to evolve over time. Examples include hiring new team members or implementing work-from-home policies.
Transformational Changes: These are comprehensive shifts that significantly alter the organization’s operations. Examples include launching new products, entering new markets, or undergoing a company-wide restructuring.

Best Practices

Aligning HR Initiatives
Align HR strategies with the organization’s goals and engage stakeholders to ensure buy-in and facilitate smooth transitions.

Facilitating Open Dialogue
Maintain transparent communication to alleviate uncertainty and build trust among employees.

Sharing the “Why”
Provide the rationale behind changes to help employees understand the necessity of decisions.

Enlisting Sponsors
Secure committed sponsors who actively support the change and can influence its success.

Addressing Employee Concerns
Recognize that employees may resist change for various reasons and provide support to manage this resistance.

Using Storytelling
Employ narratives to convey the organization’s culture, values, and vision, connecting emotionally with employees.

Creating Urgency and Feedback Loops
Communicate the need for change compellingly and establish mechanisms to gather feedback and adjust strategies accordingly.

Securing Leadership Support
Ensure that executives are visibly committed to the change, as their support is crucial for encouraging others to follow.
