Overview: In part II of our podcast, Kurt and special guest enjoy a margarita while discussing post pandemics plans for businesses that are welcoming employees back or simply trying to navigate the unchartered waters of business with COVID-19.

Topics Discussed

1) Risk Management

With employees facing new threats in the work place, liability of businesses is being challenged in wrongful death suits and claims of hazardous work environments. Making plans to keep your employees safe and mitigate risk is at the forefront of business management teams across the globe.

2) Technology

Anti-microbial materials, voice activated automation, UV lights, and industrial grade air purifications systems are at the forefront of post pandemic technology upgrades.

3) Disruption Mindset

The pandemic has altered business as many of us know it for the foreseeable future. Developing a mindset that acknowledges change is constant is key to being nimbler and more agile than your competitors.
