TLC Business Break
[Virtual Event] "Clarity in the Midst of Uncertainty: An Expert Q&A Session" led by TLC's experts representing various industries
As business leaders, we are solution-oriented. At our core, we crave certainty so we strategize in our sleep and constantly work to achieve progress. But how should we respond when disruption like COVID-19 enters the picture and threatens to destroy our well-intentioned plans? Andy Stanley recently said,
"During disruption [...uncertainty], clarity is the next best thing to certainty."
How do we gain clarity in the midst of uncertainty? In times of disruption, successful leaders ask incredibly good questions. They freely admit they don't have it all together, because there is something greater at stake. They realize that the goal is not to create something of their own. It's about creating something that will last - a legacy.
Think about it. Eight to ten weeks ago before COVID-19 became a real threat in the U.S., had you already predicted its potential risk to your business, analyzed how the crisis would affect the economy or your team's health, or prepared contingency plans for every possible variable? Of course not! A crisis requires adaptability, resilience, and community. No man (or woman) is an island unto itself.
We cannot plan the future with absolute certainty, but for the sake of the people we lead, we must show up and speak up with clarity. Be honest about your reality (what you can and cannot control), seek wise counsel and support from trusted sources, adapt your strategy, gain traction at every possible juncture, remember progress is a process, and never ever lose faith in the end of your story.
On Thursday, May 14, at our next TLC Business Break, join your peers and a panel of highly qualified experts who will be available to answer your questions and provide professional guidance to help you survive and thrive amid COVID-19. In this Expert Q&A webinar, we will create a safe place for you to ask questions, seek clarity, share your experiences, and gain the wisdom and practical resources you need to find a path forward.
