Presented by Paul Eldrenkamp, HELM Business Consultant and Coach

Paul Eldrenkamp has weathered many financial setbacks prior to COVID-19, including: The “stagflation” of the early 1980s; 1987’s “Black Monday”; the dot-com bubble of the late 1990s; the shock after the 9/11 attacks; the global financial crisis of 2007-08. Each of these punches was hard, but each offered an opportunity for a small business to come back a little stronger and a little wiser. We don’t know yet how hard COVID-19’s punch will be, but it could be a knock-out blow for some. In this webinar Paul will discuss some lessons learned from the financial shocks of the last 40 years, and how they might help you remain standing even after this one.

40 minute presentation with 20 minutes of discussion/Q&A
