THE NECESSITY OF RESILIENCEWhat is true in boxing, is true in business.

Agility in maneuvering, precision in attacking the market is key. But for winning fights, you need to be able to take a hit.

On a strategic level, it’s all about finding the right balance in portfolio, footprint, sourcing, and financing. Like training and nutrition, this prepares you, but by itself it’s not enough to win the fight.

As the fight begins, operational resilience is key. Floating like a butterfly is just the right tactic. Anticipation of potential scenarios and organizational agility to react swiftly. When taking the hit, a cool head and working hands make the difference in bouncing back. 

After the fight there’s no time for sugarcoating. This is the moment for assessing reality and refining your market approach. A true champion understands the power of strategy and tactics…but above all understands the necessity of resilience.

Because everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.
