Over the past four years, we have endured profound and shared experiences that have reshaped our collective psyche: a pandemic that disrupted our sense of safety, repeated incidents of police violence and mass shootings, a war in Ukraine, an insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, a divided electorate, and both sides unhappy in one way or the other with the Presidential election, and there will be more.
These events, both discrete and ongoing, have contributed to a phenomenon known as collective trauma. Unlike individual trauma, collective trauma encompasses shared memories of distressing events that communities process and revisit to make sense of their impact. This shared burden has intensified burnout, highlighted systemic barriers to mental health support, and driven many to reevaluate their priorities and values, seeking greater meaning and purpose in their lives.

Observations of a Corporate Headhunter:
In the past, the Malayan Dayaks were feared for their ancient tradition of fierce headhunting practices....
After conversion to Islam or Christianity and anti-headhunting legislation by the colonial powers the practice was banned and disappeared, only to resurface in the late 90s.
Corporate Dyaks now roam the hallways and social corridors looking for only the very best talent on the PLANET !
