Where will you be?
Here are 9 places to be:
1. Wherever it is, your reputation is intact.
2. Your customers appreciate you even more.
3. Your suppliers are even more supportive.
4. You and your employees have learned new skills.
5. In front, encouraging others and not whining about how bad it is.
6. In a more self-confident place, knowing what you can do and what you cannot.
7. Part of it, and not part of the problem.
8. Having more options, not fewer.
9. Convinced you did everything you could do to help the company, or find a job.

This list is really great – and framing it the way you did is even greater. So many of our strategies are based upon the immediate survival of the crisis that we forget the value of proper foundation building to benefit from the recovery. What is nice is how you show that they are, properly understood, really the same thing! Nicely framed.

Nice job!

My dad would add one more: Being able to look yourself in the mirror each morning, knowing that you acted in absolute intregrity.
Thanks for the insights.
