Beyond the Crisis
Right, we can put a tick in the election(s) box, and hopefully something close to the normal Christmas momentum will take care of the rest of 2008. That leaves the small matter of 2009 ………..
In one sense, it will be no different to other years from a business planning viewpoint: we have to think about the stuff we can control and do, and we have to try and gauge how the external environment might affect us. Trouble is, the second bit is much trickier than normal and there are several layers to it – what happens locally, at a New Zealand level, and of course globally. On top of that, we have new governments with new policies to contend with, and a heap of conflicting advice and analysis to choose from.
