Most businesses still do not have a plan and you never the want to feel like you did on that day that we all got the news that we're going into lockdown and we started to see the severity of covid-19. Get that plan in place. It doesn't need to be a weighty tone. It does help to get good facilitation around you, but get that plan in place and be working to that plan.   Connect with Martin: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-brown-53332914/ Website: https://elephants-child.co.uk/ Email: m.brown@elephants-child.co.uk Twitter: https://twitter.com/MB888888
