If you ponder, you will squander.

We live in interesting times. Yes, there is a lot of fear surrounding our current circumstance. If you think about the businesses that came out of the 2008 recession like Uber, AirBnb, you realize it’s impossible to envision what might come out of this intense time.  

So, if someone has the means to start a business, how could one possibly begin? How can a business leader position themself to come out of the darkness poised and ahead of the game? 

To help us navigate our current entrepreneurial fears I’ve brought on my friend, primetime television host of C-Suite with Jeffrey Hayzlett, and Executive Perspectives on C-Suite TV, and business podcast host of All Business with Jeffrey Hayzlett on C-Suite Radio, Jeffrey Hayzlett.
