Employees
Your employees are another stakeholder to check up on during this downtime. Your employees will always be your business’ representatives, so make sure they are up to standard and help them improve their skills. Teach your employees more about your business goals.
Conducting a business health check and strategies and improving the team atmosphere by introducing team recreational activities. Your relationship with your employees now during a global crisis will dictate how they feel about you as a leader and if they can rely on you in the future. Foster respectful, strong and healthy bonds between you and your employees; only good things will come your way.
Suppliers
The key question to ask when reviewing your suppliers is whether or not you are getting what you need from them at a reasonable cost. If you feel that your suppliers are asking too much from you or letting you down with their product quality, take the time now to
look for other options. As businesses struggle through current economic conditions, suppliers are becoming competitive, and there are more options to consider. Do your research and decide on the suppliers you want to work with for the long-term.
Finances
Managing your finances is always a difficult task but it is now more important than ever. Your budget and profit predictions for this year are likely going rogue so reevaluate your finances and research other funding options such as commercial rent, interest rates and banking services.
Consider how you can minimize cost while maximizing efficiency and productivity, save as much money as possible during these downtimes, and review your investments in detail to determine whether or not they are worthwhile.
