20/20 Money Episode # 72 – Crisis Management Tips During COVID-19 Closures

March 23, 2020

Welcome to this episode of 20/20 Money! Every practice owner around the country is trying to figure out which way gravity is working right now and figuring out how to make unprecedented decisions in their practice as it pertains to their cash flow and their team management. With that being the case, we wanted to provide some thoughts and ideas that practice owners can take during these time to better prepare themselves and their practices for the foreseeable future.

In this episode we talk about the importance of being proactive in a number of different areas in your practice and I also spend time going through some details on the new Coronavirus-related Emergency Paid Sick Leave Act that was passed late on Wednesday night and which goes into effect April 2nd. I wrap it up with, for lack of a better word, a plea to every practice owner on how important it is for you to “protect the asset” and being aware of your mindset and emotional state through everything as we go through these times.

As a reminder, you can get all the information discussed in today’s conversation by visiting our website at integratedpwm.com and clicking on the Learning Center. While there, you can also set up a 20-30min Discovery conversation to learn a little bit more about what it means to work with our firm or check out any number of additional free resources like our eBooks and on-demand webinars.
