Intended for:
For middle and senior managers to strengthen organizational stability and resilience to environmental changes.
Challenge:
The second decade of the 21st century seems to be only warming up, bringing more and more new turns in events that severely affect the well-being of the whole world. Instability and uncertainty reign in various market sectors, undermining the viability of companies. Just when we seem to have overcome this crisis, the next blow hits us.
History shows that major or minor crises happen regularly, at least once a decade, but only the rare company is prepared for them. We observed this very clearly a year ago, when without downtime benefits, companies lost their viability within a month. Many have never returned to the market.
The blow, which is likely to await us in the autumn, will be decisive for many in the fight to survive in the event of a severe economic recession.
Is it possible to do something today to soften the fall or even better - use the crisis to your advantage?
How have companies that survived two world wars, the Great Depression in the 1930s in the USA and all other recessions of the last century survived and strengthened their positions in the market? How to smartly prepare for future crises so that you don't have to rely on state benefits and loans as the only means of survival? How not to lose what we have dreamed and built for years?
We will find answers to these and other questions in Karlina Anna Rosenfeld's seminar "Process optimization in the company".
