Unexpected disruptions can impact any business. From natural disasters and global crises to supply chain issues or economic shifts. In this session, Lindsay will explore the many types of disruptions that can affect your business and your cash flow, including tariff conflicts, regulatory changes, rapid growth, and unexpected team turnover. You’ll gain insights into how disruptions can affect not only your company, but also your clients and partners. Learn strategies to prepare for the unexpected, respond effectively when challenges arise, and position your business to remain resilient and adaptable in uncertain times.
