The bridge to nowhere is a story with a powerful lesson in what happens when we cannot adapt.Certainty is something we have valued dearly (checking the weather forecast is just one manifestation of this).With COVID changing lives as we have known it, nothing is certain any longer.Which is our bridge that may be leading to nowhere if we don’t adapt, is a question worth asking.For more Stories at Work do subscribe to our YouTube channel which has two playlists - #StoryBank https://bit.ly/WStoryB

When I was a kid, I remember everytime something bad happened to me - from tripping and falling or accidentally breaking something - my grandmother would almost immediately say “phanra katlo” (Bengali for disaster avoided).Her belief was that these little troubles were my guardian angel’s way of ensuring that the big disasters didn’t happen by ticking the disaster checklists of sinister agents with small misfortunes.I have often wondered if that is true. I have also wondered whether the saying that
