I'm not a medical or government expert, but I wanted to offer some thoughts on how you, as a manufacturing leader, might think about and approach this trying time; and begin to plan how to move forward after this crisis.
We don't know exactly how many weeks or months this event is going to last, but we will get past this crisis. While you weather the storm, there are three phases you can focus on to moving forward:
Survive and Support
Plan Your Recovery
Engage in the Recovery
In addition to staying connected to your organization, suppliers, and team, you should also begin to think about the recovery process. What will you do in the next 2, 3, or 6 months to plan for your business recovery?
Now is the time to think about how you are going to go all once you are back in business. Focus on the things that you can do right now, including planning, learning, and supporting people.
