Are companies painting themselves into a corner in response to economic challenges?  This is a business sustainability question that our professional consulting firm has been working to address with our clients and in our own operations.

According to the Corporate Executive Board, many companies stop growing permanently in tough economic times despite the fact that many of the causes of permanent growth stalls are largely preventable.  Differentiating between reactionary decisions and implementing informed business sustainability strategies can be a fine line, especially in tough times.  We often qualify decisions in terms of future growth:

•    Are you cost cutting your way to “growth paralysis” in a potentially rebounding market?

•    Have you reduced your internal resources to levels that place strain on operations?
