LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
W
elcome to the spring issue of our Risk & Business
Magazine.
It was the end of March when this issue first went
to print. The COVID-19 pandemic hadn’t yet hit
at full scale, and we were gearing up for our first
seminar in a new series we were set to launch this year. It’s amazing
how quickly things can change.
When we received our first proof back from the publisher, our
planned seminars no longer seemed fitting for this issue.
Business owners and managers are faced with “bend or break”
scenarios almost every day. The COVID-19 pandemic showcases
the substantial advantage companies can gain by utilizing learned
flexibility when facing an unprecedented situation.
Approaching day-to-day business with an open mind, prepared for
the unexpected, will heighten your senses when new opportunities
come your way. In fact, most opportunity arises from the
unexpected.
Keep your mind open to new ideas that may not fit into your current
business plan. In the same way you prepare for unexpected events,
use times of uncertainty to develop new channels through which
your business can grow in unprecedented ways.
We’re all in this together, and we’ll navigate this unprecedented
situation as it continues to unravel. Please check out our
Coronavirus Resource Center on our website for additional
resources for your organization.
Stay healthy!
