This Article
Your (business) life may depend upon it!

In
a study of 375 of the Fortune 500 companies, Bain & Company
identified three stages to a downturn and two contrary behaviours to
each stage.
The stages
are:
1.
Storm clouds - the first sign of trouble.
2.
Wet and rainy weather - sales plunge.
3.
First rays of sunshine - customer purchases increase again.
What the
Losers Do
In
Bain's study they found that the 'losers' respond to each stage
'intuitively'. At each stage, losers:
1.
Exude confidence - don't alarm the team or the market.
2.
Slash costs - reduce staff, quality and services.
3.
Spend lots - regain momentum, make it up to staff and customers.

Winners Do
