After the hardest hitting recession in living memory,
Irish business were left shell-shocked. A generation of business owners and
managers, who had been conditioned to only consider solutions that involved
throwing (borrowed) money at a problem, were compromised by the bust and
ill-equipped to deal with the challenges they faced.
Providing a framework to help businesses successfully trade through
challenging economic conditions, this book sets out the seven principles (Seven
Cs) of business recovery developed by the author based on his experience and
expertise in the area of corporate business recovery. With a chapter devoted to
each, the Seven Cs of Business Recovery are:
- Council (Advice)
- Communication
- Co-operation
- Clarity (of Purpose)
- Costs
- Cash
- Customers
Presented in a clear and accessible style, this book is based on reality, not
theory, and provides sound business advice. All of the principles and skills
described are illustrated by real-life examples from the author's experience of
working with and advising Irish businesses.
This title is also published as The Seven Cs
of Business Recovery – an eBook for Kindle, available from Amazon.
