During the winter and spring, the local creek fills up with fast moving water. At points, it is so fast moving, dirt and sediment are carved out of the sides and base of the creek bed. As the water subsides, the ripples in the creek bed that the fast moving water left become visible. There’s always a change…a difference in the structure of the creek.
In business, there are times when the volume and velocity of work are so significant and fast moving, it’s hard to tell what is getting carried away. But when the rush subsides, it is important to take a look and make sure the foundation is still intact. After all, what’s left needs to support the business going forward.
