Issue 029: Break Free of Status Quo!
– Bob Iger
Like many companies, Lisa Ryan’s Grategy™ speaking business came to a screeching halt by the end of March 2020. Without in-person conferences being held, there wasn’t a need for keynote speakers. How many people do you know that have been caught in a similar Catch-22?
In this fluid economy of unexpected changes with commerce, mandates, and buyer’s buying behaviors, Lisa knew she needed to rethink her business model. Not one to remain in the status quo, she searched for ways she could blend her expertise, remote programs, and opportunities together. And what she had in her pocket was a large list of incredible experts that she had built strong relationships with in the past eight years. How could Lisa Bounce-Up™?
Now, colleagues have called Lisa a Force of Nature because she’s in high gear most of the time. Have you ever heard the quote “Be the kind of woman (or man) that when your feet hit the floor in the morning, the devil says, “Oh crap, she’s (he’s) up.”? That sums up Lisa. She’s someone who can take a negative situation and turn it into a detailed plan?
“Mj, I’m going to do a Summit for manufacturers and possibly include construction with it,” Lisa shared one blistering July day. The excitement was evident in her voice as she gave a few more details from how she would incorporate the guest interviews to the platform she would use.
“Are you in?”
“Absolutely.” I’ve had several manufacturing clients so I would have techniques and examples to offer.
The outcome is the three-day FREE Employee Retention Summit that kicks off November 9, 2020.
