What I Learned From my First Major Crisis as a CEO | Entrepreneur
Briefly

As a new CEO, facing a significant market crisis proved challenging yet enlightening. The territory, once thriving, showed alarming signs of distress with dropped contracts and franchisee complaints. Despite the emotional difficulty of taking action against an established leader, the executive team chose to assume control to protect franchisees and clients. This decision led to accepting immediate business losses to restore trust and stability within the brand, highlighting the necessity of resilience and strategic management in leadership.
The market was in crisis and it became clear that we had to step in - not just to stabilize the business, but to protect the franchisees who were left without proper support.
We made the difficult but necessary decision to step in and assume control of the market to preserve the brand, our clients and the long-term interests of the system.
