About the Guide

Inflation spikes, supply chain bottlenecks, geopolitical conflicts and an ongoing pandemic have created a volatile, unpredictable environment that’s particularly precarious for small and midsize businesses. On top of that, whispers of a recession are growing louder.

With all this turbulence, a CEO can’t afford to make mistakes in their approach to leadership. These seven fails, in particular, can be especially damaging to a business in a downturn.  Avoiding these mistakes can work to your advantage and help you outperform the competition. We’ve seen it time and time again in our 65 years of coaching high-performing CEOs through boom markets and recessions.
