What Are Opporthreats For Leaders Of A Fitness Business?
Last week, I attended a meeting of the Chairs of REX Roundtables from around the world. This was a 3-day intensive, peer to peer, professional development program to make me a better Chair of The Industry Leaders Roundtable.
It was during this meeting that the concept of ‘Opporthreats’ was explained to me.
‘Opporthreats’ are events that could be opportunities or threats based on how we respond.
Here was my insight: the time frame for ‘Opporthreats’ fit into a nice little quadrant:
In 2018, I will be adding discussion on ‘Opporthreats’ to every Industry Leaders Roundtable meeting where we will brain storm each of the quadrants. My goal of this discussion is to have owners focus on their business of the future – not for tomorrow but for a year from today at minimum.
