Episode 145:  Preparing for Global Conflicts, Insider Threats, and Other Things You Can’t Predict

If there’s one thing we can all agree on in business, it’s that sometimes things happen that are unpredictable. In this episode, we’re looking at some of the most pressing threats from a 50-foot view and discussing all the factors that might present a risk to your organization. This episode is more about the “what” than the “how,” and we’d love to hear how you’re thinking through these issues with your organization.

Some of the key takeaways include: 

  • The mental and physical health of your employees is a big part of the conversation. It’s difficult for employees to show up at 100% when they’re personally impacted by civil unrest and global conflicts.

  • It’s important to address your work culture and how you’re handling differences in political opinions and affiliations among employees. 

  • As you’re solving challenges that affect your region, meet with other business leaders in your region who are also troubleshooting in various industries. This is one of the most efficient ways to get support and stay prepared.
