Crisis mode

 I was recently chatting with a colleague and as we spoke some similarities in the issues we came across were common between our entities. We are finding that clients are staggering within the business environment. The pressures are quite great for many and many are finding the conditions to be overwhelming. 


Well...someone's got to handle it. We can't all run the opposite direction. 

  • Indecision
  • Lack of discipline
  • Poor budgeting 
  • Inadequate planning
  • Disorganizeed 
  • Insufficient preparation
  • Fear of failure 
  • Not enough knowledge 
  • Inexperience 
  • No team 
  • Weak systems 
  • Limited access to financial information, funding, and technical assistance 
  • Undesirable people skills
These are all reasons that businesses experience challenges and these listed are from within. They don't really include factors beyond the skills and abilities of the business that impact externally. 
Can we ever be prepared for the unforeseen? 

As we know, it is virtually unrealistic to expect one person to be on the ball with every aspect of the business. It is for this reason that business functions best when there's a team involved, but you must be selective. 

Who we have on the team is important to the success(es) that the business is likely to encounter. All of these areas can be delved into further should you decide to book a planning session should you need help in these areas. Should we not have the talent in-house, we can connect you with those in our network who have those competencies. Either way, there's always a solution. 

Check back often for updates and read/reread our articles based on your business needs. Have a phenomenal day!
