LFGSM Community,

We remain committed to sharing real, practical business insights that promote effective, strong leadership -- especially during this unprecedented global health crisis.

Dr. Larry Barton has been featured on CNN, BBC, CNBC and other news outlets as one of the world's leading experts in crisis management and threat assessment. He has been actively consulting with businesses on how to lead through the uncertainty of these trying times, what this means for the future and how to come out stronger than ever on the other side.

As a friend of the program, Dr. Barton has generously agreed to spend 30 minutes via WebEx with our community to advise on how to handle what's next.

We are honored to be able to pass this gift on to you and hope you can join us on Tuesday, March 24 at 12PM CST for what could be the most impactful 30 minutes of your day.
