Headwinds and Tailwinds
A summary of opportunities and challenges facing Canadian businesses today. Over the last couple of years, we have seen the value proposition to customers, approach to the market, employment needs, distribution, and complexities related to inflation change the direction of businesses, unlike any other recent time.
As businesses navigate opportunities and threats, “Headwinds & Tailwinds” aims to help decision-makers with the following questions:
