Small business owners know that instability is to be expected and adaptability is a competitive advantage. The pandemic truly tested the resiliency of local businesses and, at the same time, has presented new opportunities.

On Thursday, May 6th, we were joined by local business leaders for a conversation on how they’ve weathered the last year and what they’re already doing to prepare for the next unpredictable business challenge.

The panelists shared their personal experiences about how the last year has affected how they run their business and engage with employees. We also heard how to build resiliency into your business by finding the right partners, technology, and tools to determine exactly what is business critical.
