Corporate survival in the age of COVID19 – together with the brand new tool Corporate Survivability Canvas - is designed to help you make the tough choices and put together a strategy that can help you improve the odds of your company’s survival.

This mini-course and new strategy tool is perfectly suited for anyone helping lead or support a company through the crisis.

This is a short, action-based course. Not to help you learn, but to help you do.

Why we created this course

A business winter is coming – are you prepared for it? Since mid-February we have watched the COVID19 situation draw closer and closer. With partners and team members in Asia and Northern Italy, we have increasingly witnessed COVID-19 and its effects.

In early March, as the crisis was creeping closer to Europe, some companies started paying attention and running scenarios. Today, most of the world is in full crisis mode, trying to find best ways to survive.

Airlines have parked up to 90% of their fleets. Large corporates have pulled down every available credit line they had. Oil & Gas companies, including their suppliers, have started laying off people in the thousands – and the crisis is just beginning.

Yet, we have seen (some of) this before. As we worked through the 2014 – 2016 oil crisis, we've helped management teams, companies, economic development agencies and national government transform and drive new economic growth.

We have seen ‘markets quake’, and how to respond. Today is different – but the challenge remains the same. How do you survive in turbulent economic times.

This online course is based on our experiences from 2014-2016 and our more recent work in helping companies navigate the ‘Double Black Swan’ we are facing.

Our purpose with this quick course is to help you and your company increase their odds of survival, fast

We have developed a short course, with a strong call to action.

This is an action course. It is a strategy course. Not a learning course.

We hope this course can help you and your comapany beat the odds and beat the situation we are in. Let’s up your company’s survivability odds!
