Understanding people has always been a challenge but with the current situation globally, people have become less predictable and ever so hard to read. In fact the same person could seem like a different person at two different meetings/discussion. The dynamics are changing so fast and we have to remind ourselves how important it has become for us now more than ever - to read people and be able to use the right skills at the right time and with the right person.
