We are all currently experiencing extraordinary times on a pandemic scale. This exceptional situation shapes our daily lives, thoughts, and actions, both as businesses and as individuals. Throughout human history, acting together has repeatedly been a key to achieving goals, overcoming crises, and mastering the most difficult situations, in society as well as in business.
“At present, a healthy economy is possible only at the cost of unhealthy people. Our task is to create a healthy economy for healthy people.”
Erich Fromm (1900–1980), in The Power of Love
Although this quotation comes from another era, it applies to the current pandemic. We must therefore follow the legal requirements and keep social contact to a minimum to slow the spread of the virus. The considerable impact on working life can only be addressed through solidarity. In the past, solidarity also meant being physically together. Today, it means isolating ourselves physically while still taking part in life. Let us remember that we live in a digital age and can use that knowledge. At EA Systems Dresden GmbH, we are already doing so to remain available to you by phone and email.
