Umbrellas before the Storm

Jeff Cornwall has crafted some great tips on preparing for stormy economic times.

What if there was another September 11-style attack tomorrow? Would it have the same effect as the previous one when the nation spent weeks shifting between grief and anger or would we bounce back more quickly?

Either way, what could you do to lessen its impact on your business?

In addition to other services, our consulting firm provides training. Training and travel are usually frozen when economic times are uncertain. The more we can provide alternatives, such as individual coaching, that are smaller ticket items in the budget, the better cushioned we are against a cold economic blast. We don't pretend that is a magic answer. It isn't. But it is far better than pretending things won't go south again.
