Scott Love, America's 'Bounce Back' Expert
Motivational speaker Scott Love believes that companies can bounce back quickly if they follow a certain model of resilience. According to Love, who some say is America's 'Bounce Back' Expert, executives and senior leaders first have to re-frame the way they see their current situations.
"We all look through a lens when we see a problem. Some people use a lens of adversity and others use a lens of opportunity. You can change lenses by simply asking yourself different questions".
Love says that the first question executives must ask their core team is this: How can we use this situation to our advantage? "I've seen companies who are stuck in a hole for weeks and all of a sudden are able to find opportunities with the snap of a finger. It can really be that quick" Sometimes Love will spend just a day in an office of a client that will yield long-term change. "They don't have to hire me for a three month consulting project. I'll help them come up with ideas that the team can implement on their own. That's what I love the most about what I do, giving companies intellectual capital that they can infuse in their teams, and most of the time they already know what they need to do. They just need someone from the outside to dust it off and illuminate their solutions that are right in front of them".
Love's consulting and speaking practice keeps him busy these days. "Companies can't sit back and wait for the economy to heat up if they want to stay competitive. They have to be proactive and take advantage of opportunities NOW. And the simple concept of changing lenses through question-asking is a good first step to moving forward".
Love offers free videos and articles for managers and sales people on his website http://www.HowToBounceBack.com. In addition to in-office consulting, he speaks on 'bouncing back' at corporate sales meetings, trade association conventions, and business conferences.
