I wrote this article (download and read it here) as I started to see how pervasive the wait and see mentality had become. There are massive changes in the marketplace occurring and the point of the piece is that small business will either do what they do best (risk and adapt) in these times or they will act like big bidness (wait and see). I am encouraging all of our customers to do what we are doing in our own company; use the time caused by the slow down to build the strength of your process and your team. Then when the smoke clears you can come out ready. Someone said there are three kinds of people: some people make things happen, other people see things happening, most people say “what happened?”. Hey wait, somebody else said “there are 3 kinds of people: those who can do math, and those who cannot”.
I am interested in your yeahs and yeahbuts about this article. If you owned the company what would you do? If you do own the company what are you doing to thrive after you survive the current troubles? Please comment below.
