EP 13: What is Your Business Mode - Growth, Management or Peril?
Today's episode is a little different. First we talk a little bit about our current supply chain crisis which is impacting just about everyone's lives in one way or another.
I want to talk about how one of my client's has taken the experience and the opportunity to be stronger in his business. As a business owner you will face challenges, it just goes with the territory.
But today's business owner due to our fast-paced and always changing landscape has to recover, learn-quick, and then get right back to business.
After a crisis so many business owners just slip back into their old ways and habits - but some - they will learn and be better from it. I talk a bit in this podcast about human conditioning and how we learn.
The reason why this is so important is because as business owners we need to understand these things when we are in a crisis not for our benefit mind you, but the benefit of our customers, clients and patients. We have to stay attached to how things are impacting THEM.
We will also discuss various business modes. At any point in time a business owner is going to find themselves in one of 3 places or modes as I call them. We have growth mode, management mode, and peril mode.
Decide where you are in the spectrum and ask yourself do your actions line up with the current mode you are in?
