business rescue

I am an old yachtie person. Ever since I was 3 years old, I have been playing on boats of some kind. From sailing on lakes and dams to ocean racing and regattas around the world. With a huge amount of success, failure has also come many times. I have been stranded on mud banks and reefs, caught in storms, lost masts, capsized and almost sunk twice. The services of the NSRI have saved me and my fellow crew members on a number of occasions. That is why, to this day, I will always support them through fund raising and donations. You just never know when you may need them again.
Similar to yachts, all businesses at one time or another need some form of rescue. It may just be a short tow off the reef of short cash flow or a full scale rescue from sinking into oblivion. Where is your business today?
We are putting together a one day Business Rescue workshop that will put you and your business through a number of strategic assessments to help diagnose where it needs some attention to avoid failure and potential disaster. We assess all aspects of the business from staffing, job descriptions, accountability to processes, product alignment, customer services and of course finances.
Question: What aspect of business do you think causes failure above all else? We would love to hear from you.
