Covid-19 has impacted us all. It's changing the way we live, the way we do business and the way we interact with each other. We've seen businesses react in a range of different ways, and decided to use this time to share some inspiring stories of digital business who are innovating to survive and thrive. In this short mini-series we'll share stories of how businesses are managing this from the coalface, how they've changed their product/strategy and how they've made it all happen with remote teams, and what they see for the future.One of our values here at Cogent is Wellbeing. The wellbeing of the people who work at Cogent has been of paramount importance during this time of rapidly changing context.Similarly, Smiling Mind has wellbeing at the centre of its purpose; specifically the wellbeing of young people, equipping them with what they need to thrive and excel in life.For them, this new context has meant rapid change on multiple fronts. The use of their already popular meditation and mindfulness app has grown by over 165%, and they've had to adjust from running workshops and training in-person, to delivering them digitally.In this episode we speak with their Chief Operating Officer Sarah La Roche about their new normal.To keep up to date with what is happening with Cogent, including when new episodes of this podcast are released, you can subscribe to our blog at cogent.co/blog.
