Panel 2
Building a Foundation of Success on the Heels of Failure
Our world is filled with failed organizations that dissolved because organizational leaders could not overcome failure or adversity. Some of these organizations survive through the appointment of new leadership. There is great risk involved in taking command of an organization deemed unsalvageable. It takes a unique leader and convincing vision to renew vigor and revitalize an organization on the eve of destruction. What are the key components to rebuilding an organization after failure? How does a leader inspire members of an organization to remain loyal and dedicated in the aftermath of defeat? What challenges do an organization and its leadership face in this type of environment?
