The recession prompted by COVID-19 has disrupted business operations across the country, and this disruption is not just a phase. Businesses must define new business models as we continue to face issues like changing customer expectations and buying behaviors, fragile supply chains, challenges of remote work, updated health and safety requirements, and managing employee retention.

In this interactive webinar, our expert panelists (meet them below!) will share their unique advice on:
