Business is changing.
The "good old times" are not coming back!
Business models, sales, and the way we engage with people are undergoing profound changes.
As we move into the future, companies and service providers need to strike a balance between what has worked in the past and what needs to happen to succeed in the "new normal". What was once non-negotiable is already a reality today.
Some entrepreneurs and leaders think that simply providing employees with laptops is enough when it comes to remote work (home office). Instead, it's about supporting best practices around collaboration, flexibility, participation and accountability.
New approaches, strategies and systems are needed. Driven by real leaders! This can only be achieved with people and teams who stand behind a mission and are willing to put themselves at the service of others.
Research shows that during and after the 2008 financial crisis, companies that were in the top fifth of corporate performance had a lead of about 20 percentage points over their peers. Eight years later, their lead had grown to 150 percentage points!
From our experience with thousands of entrepreneurs, we also know that 1) those who work as a team achieve the best and most sustainable success and 2) those who act earlier, faster, and more decisively in times of disruption perform best.
Will you be one of them?
Our mission is:
To improve the quality of life for all by educating entrepreneurs with the best possible entrepreneurial skills to change the world for the better.
This is what we all need right now!
Do you like to sell?
Sales equals income!
If YOU don't master this game, others will.... and then THEY will serve your customers!
Our world is changing rapidly, and we must stay informed and be able to act quickly to remain not only successful, but also viable.
From the "old economy", to "e-commerce", to "contact-free economy" further to ...?
Are you prepared?
It is expected that by 2021, about 1/3 of companies will disappear because they have not adapted to the changing environment and consumer behavior!
The year 2020 has shown us all that the transition to new sales and distribution methods can happen faster than expected.
Are you equipped today to adapt to the next "new situation"?
Do you need to reach more clients and customers?
The way we approach and communicate with our customers is changing.
New ways of communicating are necessary.
Our customers and clients know more, are more mobile and need more than they have ever needed before. Their future is uncertain and dependability from us.
Do you know how to proceed to achieve this?
Start imagining your business in the "New normal"!
We all know that in difficult times, hope and optimism can quickly be lost. To accelerate the path to recovery, leaders must be able to spread both purpose and optimism. Knowing that even an uncertain future can become a better one through planning and effort.
Our experience and conversations have shown that companies are working faster and better in the current crisis than they could have dreamed just a few months ago.
Start envisioning your business as it should be in the "New Normal" and start taking the right steps today!
Learning is a fundamental, natural ability of all fully-functional individuals.
Learning is the first step toward knowledge. Knowledge and practical application are the major components of mastery.
Mastery and effectiveness are the major composites of a wholeness that achieves the state of integrity.

The ten commandments during the pandemic that
every successful entrepreneur needs to know!
Speed is important: Companies must fundamentally rethink their revenue concept in order to position themselves for the long term and stay one step ahead of the competition.
2) Identify and prioritize revenue opportunities.
It's important to identify primary revenue sources and, based on those, take the "now or never" actions necessary before the recovery fully takes hold.
3) Act with urgency.
It's amazing how quickly many companies have adapted and created a radical new level of transparency, agility, productivity and engagement with consumers.
4) Develop an agile operating model.
Introduce new operating models that are customer-centric and supported by the right processes and leadership.
5) Rebuild operations.
The pandemic has radically changed demand patterns for products and services across the board, while exposing vulnerabilities in global supply chains and service distribution.
6) Create transparency in capital and operating costs.
To survive and thrive amid the economic fallout, companies must fundamentally overhaul their operations and expenses.
7) Accept the future of work.
The future of work, defined by the use of more automation and technology, has been a long time coming.
Circumstances have only accelerated the pace.
8) Build a strong team and good work environment.
Companies have moved quickly. Sales and operations planning used to be done weekly or even monthly; today, a daily approach is the norm. To build on this evolution, speed remains critical.
Companies that recognize this and are willing to set new standards and break old paradigms will gain a long-term strategic advantage.
9) Take action.
Behind any business success lies a great team. Even the most innovative entrepreneurs can't scale from an idea to actual success without the help of a team. The way you create the environment is critical to overall success.
10) Rethink and redesign your organization!
How you operate.
How you grow.
How you lead.
Let's do it together.
