In a crisis it can feel like all action. Immediate decisions, this and this and this, hurry, rush, fly.

Whether you’re growing, staying flat, or in any other state other than straight-out retreat … always be hiring.
That doesn’t mean keep making job offers.
It does mean get out there, meet new people, expand your network, keep your website attractive and up to date, make sure everything that’s on social media tells the story you want to promote, tell everyone you know to point interesting people in your direction, listen out for opportunities.
It does mean seek out and be visible to the kind of people you want to hire next.
