The Courage to carry on through the worst of times, and the Faith to believe all things will work together for good.

In these times uncertainty leaders will need both to succeed. This balance, and combination of both, are traits inherent in those who have been through trying times, have always been out front leading their teams, and driving the brand forward.

Always persevere through these times, and understand how to manage the ups and downs.
