How to avoid the ‘out of sight, out of mind’ trap

Q: Since the pandemic, a lot of people in our company are still working remotely. I’m one of them. I now live 140 miles from head office, having moved here early in lockdown. I’m the furthest one away and consequently spend the least amount of time in head office. The others tend to spend a day each week there, whereas I pay a visit perhaps once every four weeks. There is no hard-and-fast rule, but I find it makes sense for me to go there about once a month to meet some people. A promotion opportunity is coming up and I fear I may suffer from the ‘out of sight out of mind’ phenomenon. How can I avoid this? (DJ, email).

The Patrician Brothers, at the invitation of the last Catholic Warden of Galway, arrived in Galway in 1826 and a month later they opened St Patrick’s Monastery and School on Market Street. They initially had 200 pupils but this figure rapidly grew so that during the Famine, there were more than 1,000 boys being educated, fed, and many of them clothed there every day. The school was a major success but there were no educational facilities for older boys in the ‘lower orders’ in Galway so Bishop McEvilly invited the Patrician Brothers to set up a secondary school.
