Resiliency for small business owners

Why are some small businesses owners able to be met with challenge after challenge, but are still able to persevere while others crumble at the first misstep?

It’s because these people and their small businesses have grit.

Gritty individuals, teams and small business owners share the same traits: a desire to work hard, learn and improve. They have resilience in the face of adversity and of course a true respect and appreciation for how they can personally thrive, leverage what each member brings to the team and learn to pivot their products and services.

In times of adversity, like this Covid-19 pandemic, resilience and grit is being tested like never before.

There are two critical aspects to grit – passion and perseverance.

Passion comes from within. It is a decision to bring our best self to the work we do and the people we do it with. It is a decision to invest in our personal wellbeing, show up and let our purpose guide us.

Passion lights the way for us, whereas perseverance fuels our drive.

In this webinar, we will uncover the principles to building grit in yourself, your team and your business and discover tools and techniques to build resilience into your business.

Join Gary Gzik on October 19th, where he will help you make the decision to bring your best self to work, to your team and to life and how to build real perseverance and resilience in your business during these challenging times.
