Deadline: 9:00 AM EST - 17 July
Query:
TIME Magazine recently found that "more than one in four
American adults met the criteria that psychologists use to
diagnose serious mental distress and illness. That represents a
roughly 700% increase from pre-pandemic data collected in 2018."
Social isolation is a part of what's causing that distress.
Gensler's Work From Home Survey found that what respondents miss
most about the office is all about people. I'm working on an
article of ways workers and companies are fostering connection
during the pandemic that go beyond virtual happy hours. (An
example of what I'm looking for: A group of five coworkers
sheltered in place together at a rental home for a month because
they missed the camaraderie of their office culture.)
Requirements:
Looking for unique (and safe) ways employees and companies are
maintaining social connection. Solutions must follow social
distancing and quarantine pod rules.
Must be able to speak on behalf of a company, and be willing to

Query:
Workplaces around the world are slowly to starting to reopen as
the Covid economy inches back to normal. But not all managers
are sympathetic to their employees' personal
responsibilities--and some are downright hostile towards them.
As a result, working parents and others who care for elderly or
sick relatives are caught between tending to their families and
doing their jobs. What's the best way to approach working for
someone who is like this?
Requirements:
I am looking to speak with an employee whose boss doesn't
understand or dismisses their family commitments. I am happy to
keep you anonymous if you prefer. I am NOT looking for expert
commentary. Rather I am looking for real case studies. Here are
my questions:
How did you handle your family commitments with your boss? Were
you honest about your obligations?
How did you talk with your boss about their priorities?
How did you set boundaries? How did you help shift your org's
culture away from FaceTime and toward results?
How did you form supportive coalitions with other working
parents?
How did you help your family through rough spots and
transitions?
And how did you set a better schedule for yourself?
