120: Strategic Planning Series: Building Your Resiliency

At Tap the Potential, we are keenly aware that your business is happening within the context of your life, and what a challenging year 2020 has presented for many of us, both professionally and personally. Tap the Potential’s year-end tradition for our clients in the Better Business, Better Life™ program is to take them through in-depth strategic planning to prepare for the year ahead, and helping to build a business that gives them their life back. We are all eagerly looking forward to a much better experience in the coming year, so we are bringing you a four-part series around strategic planning. Please join us as we dive into this first part and take you through powerful exercises to help you own what you have accomplished and build your resilience toward what’s to come in 2021.

This is our gift to you, and we sincerely hope that you find value in this experience.

Profit by Design is a Tap the Potential Production in collaboration with Small Business Consulting Group.
