Achieving a high level of business resilience is something every business should strive for.
Business resilience planning is an investment in the future well-being of your company. The ability to be able to work through whatever problems or events your business faces depends on the plans you have put in place. But what if you had no plans and the economic climate changed drastically, as it has with the current COVID-19 pandemic?
In this podcast, we delve into the topic of business resilience and identify ways growing businesses in the Pacific Islands can adopt best business practices to ensure the sustainability of their business.
To shed light on this topic, our host Emma Crawford-Falekaono spoke with Chris Elphick, Co-Founder of Breadfruit Consulting based in Vanuatu.
Breadfruit Consulting is based in Port Vila, Vanuatu, and is a BLP approved Partner and business advisor for growing businesses in the region.
