With this call for businesses to participate in social change, business owners and CEOs are faced with touch decisions regarding their company’s response during these uncertain times. As we said, these are atypical times, and we know everyone needs support as they grapple with question such as:
- How do we respond to current events?
- What is our role or responsibility?
- How do we interact with our employees and our clients?
- What should be our plan going forward?
One of our top priorities is to help our clients navigate uncertainty. And in speaking with our clients, and understanding what matters most to them, we think there are two core areas where we can lend our support: internal and external communications.
