The webinar will be held at 1 p.m. on Wednesday, June 3. It will occur via Zoom in a Q&A format. The event is free and open to the public.
Presented in partnership with the Sidhu School of Business and Leadership, the webinar will offer practical advice in dealing with the current economic forecast while outlining strategies for success on the road ahead.
“The coronavirus continues to be devastating to our families, the global population and to our communities. This unprecedented pandemic has also changed how business will move forward,” stated Sidhu. “The challenges created by the virus have also created tremendous opportunities for innovative business leaders to re-evaluate operations and establish new processes and introduce new services that will help them distinguish their business and services from competitors.”
Sidhu has been honored as Financial World’s CEO of the Year in 2007, 2008 and 2009 and as Turnaround Entrepreneur of the Year. In 2004, he established the Jay S.
