Free, Online Programs Help Consultants, Businesses Survive and Thrive in Crisis

Fort Lauderdale, Florida. — April 28, 2020 — Businesses are struggling in the Coronavirus crisis and economic downturn. The consultants who serve them are struggling as well. There is help. The Institute of Management Consultants USA (IMC USA, www.imcusa.org), is providing free Town Hall discussions for consultants on how to survive and thrive and lead their clients through the crisis. The Town Hall discussions include expert consultants in Finance, Digital Marketing, HR, Supply Chain, Technology and other areas. These consultants help each other, their clients and their communities to not only survive, but thrive, in the crisis. The first two of five Town Hall discussions in a series titled "Leading through the Crisis," had over 100 registrants each.

"There is a lot of power when our certified and professional consultants get together on an issue," said Certified Management ConsultantÒ and Board Director Julia Demkowski. "Our first Town Hall to bring expert advice to the consulting and business community resulted in many tips and success stories to help businesses and organizations change and pivot to get through the current crisis." One consultant shared that they had recently galvanized the board of a children's education non-profit to be first in line with their Paycheck Protection Program application. As a result of the consultant's efforts, the non-profit received approval for the PPP funds. Others shared stories of how they survived past crises as a consultant.

Additional Town Hall sessions will take place on Wednesdays at 2 PM Eastern on May 6^th and May 20th, and June 3rd.  For more information and to register for Town Halls and other events by IMC USA, visit the IMC USA Events Calendar.
