"The worst of times for the economy as a whole can be the best of times for individual firms to create value." Don Sull
Don Sull is Faculty Director of Executive Education at London Business School where he designed, directs and teaches an intensive week-long "boot camp" to help senior executives thrive in turbulent markets.
Sull has published four books and several Harvard Business Review articles. His theory of Active Inertia was cited by the Economist as 'an idea that has shaped business management over the past century'. Fortune magazine recently listed him among the 'ten new management gurus that you should know'.
Professor Sull's upcoming book The Upside of Turbulence argues that organisations should embrace uncertainty. Sull suggests that managers need to show resilience, courage and agility at a time like this - but imagination is necessary too. There are opportunities out there, even now. You just have to have the nerve and ability to go for them.
