Tip of the Week – Firefighting – Oct 21/24

Firefighting:  Too high of a percentage of businesses operate at this level. 

What does it take to go from being reactive (fighting fires) to being more proactive? 

Obviously there are certain steps that will have to be followed in order to accomplish this. 

You can’t go from being reactive to proactive overnight – it will be a process, but a process that will be worth the while in taking. 

You have to prioritize your problems in order to see which ones you need to fight right now and which ones can be set on the path to proactiveness! 

Here are a few links that I found interesting.  They will broaden your perspective on fire fighting.
