Over the years I have shared my thoughts and many articles on change. There’s no question that settling into a routine or rhythm can be relaxing or comforting, however, staying stagnant in the business world could be damaging to your business in more ways than one.
Timing is crucial on when to make a change. As the article shares, you will want to make sure that your staff are properly prepared. You will want to communicate clearly to both customers and staff.
I’m always evaluating ways to improve or grow, with that often comes change. Change can be difficult for some. I actually enjoy it at times, but it can also create a great deal of stress.
This article shares ways to minimize the stress and make change a positive experience for your customers and staff.
Have a great month, stay warm!
