Everyone starts somewhere.
You may have just opened a new center. Or maybe you’re coming through the other end of a crisis.
Either way, this major phase of transition has placed you in the first stage of the Pyramid of Excellence: Survival.
Survival isn’t inherently bad. In fact, it can be connected to beautiful moments of surrender, opportunity, and hope.
It’s also finite: Most centers only exist in Survival for a few months. During that time, there are a lot of questions and decisions to make.
In this week's podcast episode, we’re diving deep into this busy period of a center’s life to help you better understand what it looks like and what you can do to move through it as gracefully as possible.
Join me for a conversation about:
- What causes a center to hit Survival, even if they’ve been around for a while
- The different characteristics of a center at the Survival stage
- Specific steps for getting out of Survival and moving to the next stage
