2020 The Year Ahead

Happy New Year!  I hope you have had some time to relax with your family and friends over the holiday period.  Traditionally in Australia, it is a time of long, hot, lazy days, lots of great seasonal foods and new year’s resolutions around professional goals and health.

Certainly, this year has been more dramatic and different than is easy to state.  The fires and the damage in their wake have resulted in incredible amounts of hardship for thousands of people who have lost loved ones, property and their livelihoods.  The real social and economic impact will not be known for months.  I know all of us are supporting and empathizing in any way that is possible.

For the year ahead I am really excited.  In many ways, it is going to be a great year of change and challenge.

Based on many conversations with business people and ongoing research, I believe there are a few major trends which should be top of mind for SMEs that are determined to Scale New Heights with their businesses.
