Today, @enricgili told me about the book Transcend - Nine Steps To Living Well Forever, when we were talking about the level of stress a person goes through while changing a job either within a company or outside the company. He pointed out to me that the stress level a person goes through while changing a job is as much as the stress a person faces while coping with the death of a friend. It is more than the stress a person goes through while foreclosing a house. I was surprised and even a bit disturbed by this fact. In such stressful times, the one thing that can help a person cope with life is compassion and human contact. May be even conversation.
We discussed that enterprise software should be able to do something about this. We decided that we should do what we can in the upcoming releases of our products. It is a good thing we release software every three months now a days.
Meanwhile I plan to read the book that refers to these stress levels. Here is a video of the authors talking about the book.
