With Covid-19 placing demands on businesses big and small, far and wide, CEOs are being forced to summon their best to ensure the safety of workforces and customer satisfaction. Facing unprecedented challenges from creating and fostering a safe, sanitary environment for personnel, to promising global customers an uninterrupted supply chain, Sava's Marketing VP met with the company's President and CEO, Chris Krasas, CPA for an immersive and transparent discussion about how he has managed this crisis – from even before it was declared one.
As early as February, Krasas was taking proactive steps to safeguard the company’s employees from an as yet unknown health emergency, while mobilizing Sava’s leadership team to assure customers and suppliers wouldn’t go wanting.
Taking swift, sometimes extreme measures, including adding staggered shifts, creating physical distance between employees, to preemptively engaging customers and suppliers, find out how Chris processed an unrelenting torrent of information, separated fact from fiction, and disseminated mission-critical intelligence to Sava’s workers, suppliers and customers.
Said Krasas, “This [crisis] was of a completely different nature. We had a call in early April with our entire workforce, and the call was about moving from fear to hope – how we’re a family.”
Take a moment to hear how the CEO of a US, midmarket manufacturer, serving fierce global markets, has navigated this crisis so far, as well as his continuing vision for protecting Sava’s success from here.
