In this episode we’ll discuss how to inspire loyalty from employees
during difficult times? To quote Simon Sinek, one of the most
widely esteemed leadership experts, “the world is filled with
danger, things that are trying to frustrate our lives or reduce our
success or reduce our opportunities for success… It could be the
stock market economy, the restraints that result from a pandemic or
it could be a new technology that renders your business model
obsolete overnight, or I could be your competition that’s trying to
put you out of business or at the very minimum is working hard to

question how did they do this? Especially how did they do this
during a time when there were so many layoffs in their industry.
