I made a decision when this situation (aka mortgage mess, subprime crisis, housing debacle, chickens coming home to roost) started; I was not going to wallow in fear or join in negative talk. I would do whatever it took to focus on the positive.
Sometimes implementing the decision has not been easy – you see, I am a news junkie and having to shut off the news in the middle of my daily fix hurt. After a time, I learned to apply a filter while listening to the news. I looked for stories of businesses thriving in spite of the crisis. I made notes of growing industries, industries with a ton of opportunities.
To my delight, it seems as if the media and the publishing industry are finally coming on board. I found a wonderful excerpt of the new book by Geoff Colvin, Sr. Editor at Large at Fortune. The title says it all: “The Upside of the Downturn: Ten Management Strategies to Prevail in the Recession and Thrive in the Aftermath.”
In the excerpt, Colvin shares 4 Ways Leaders View Crisis, and 5 Steps you can take right now. The article is well worth a read, and I cannot wait to add “The Upside of the Downturn” to my library.
