What is the best remedy for your business as Corona travels the globe?
The travel industry faces yet another global challenge.
Do you have a sense of impending doom every time you hear another coronavirus statistic? It’s hard not to! Whether your business is selling to the Far East, Europe or closer to home, it’s difficult to not to feel a certain level of anxiety. The long-term impact of the corona virus on the travel business is becoming increasingly clear. It is hitting sales. Recruitment has stopped. Trade events are being cancelled. Travel companies are putting a hold on unnecessary expenditure, such as fam trips, whilst we wait to see how the next weeks and months unfold.
Cutting back is a natural reaction but is it the best option for your business?
During my 20 years working in the travel industry I’ve experienced other challenging times such as SARS and terrorist attacks. For business owners and leaders it means difficult decisions, conversations and stressful times ahead. Corona hits at a time when, for many travel businesses, the Q1 sales set the tone for the year.
I’m sure that leaders and business owners have already started to review and revise their strategies for the year. Managers will be focusing on keeping morale high, maximising sales where they can, managing expectations of clients, supporting sales staff (who face the prospect of not hitting targets) and maximising their income. Sales teams will be wondering how they are going to make money and stay motivated when the phones aren’t ringing.
How a coach can give your business the resilience to bounce back
As a coach I work with travel businesses to help them change, adapt, innovate and be creative as solutions to overcome obstacles and challenges. I support them to identify new goals/focus, to recognise what is within their control and what is not, to identify opportunities which are motivational and support them with the capability to achieve results.
Coaching helps business to:
- Be able to adapt to changing needs and identify new opportunities.
- Shift the focus and energy away from what is outside of their control to the more helpful view of what is within their control.
- Support the wellbeing of staff during stressful times
- Provide a trusted confidant to business owners and leaders during a lonely period of responsibility
- Bring teams/groups together and facilitate solution focussed discussions
Using a suite of psychometric tools (Tilt365.com) I can provide a fast track approach to understanding your team and leadership character strengths. At a time when you need your business to be courageous, resilient, compassionate and rational, this tool helps you to see what your business needs to do more of and what it needs to do less of.
