Adversity is a common challenge for business owners, but running a business during economic uncertainty adds an extra layer of complexity. To weather this storm, focus on creating value for your customers, automate repetitive tasks to free up human resources, cut red tape to prioritize effectiveness, work together with partners and other businesses to serve shared customers, read the tea leaves to anticipate market shifts, create a contingency plan to diversify offerings, and lead your team with empathy, patience, listening, understanding, gratitude, action, and integrity. By taking these steps, business owners can navigate uncertainty and emerge stronger on the other side.
