In difficult economic times, Americans tend to get tremendously innovative. New companies and new products historically have been what has led us out of times like these.
Here are the 5 ways that entrepreneurs and innovators have taken advantage of the downtime created by this crisis and ones of the past:
-
- The founders are more willing to try new things during times like these
- Companies find it easier to recruit top talent
- They have a tighter focus on cash flow and products
- It is easier getting ideas heard and implemented
- Entrepreneurs and innovators run their companies with a stronger sense of purpose
There is an old expression that says entrepreneurs and innovators should never waste a crisis and, honestly, there is a lot of truth in that. If you own a business, make sure you are being innovative and using this time to your advantage.
