In this week's podcast we discuss,
How to Win in a Recession Like a Ninja
Panelist:
Colin Alsheimer
In the 80’s there was a Ninja fad, and apparently it never died. The thing with Ninjas is that they’re smart. Instead of confronting a rushing attacker head on, they step to the side and slice off the attackers head. This is what smart companies need to be doing in a recession. When it feels like the whole world is on your shoulders, and the pressure is mounting – don’t fight it, step to the side and slice off its head. A recession is a perfect time to step back and reexamine your business – what’s working, and what’s becoming an insurmountable struggle that just needs to change? Companies that don’t adapt will die. So will you be a Recession Ninja? Or are just another Recession Statistic?
