Upper Canada Chapter Meeting

SCOTT WENTWORTH, Wentworth Landscapes + Construction

Presentation: ‘Tis the set of the sails, and not the gales, that tells the way we go

Overview
We make choices every day in how we respond to the conditions that impact our teams and businesses.
These choices can be all the more impactful during challenging times. The right choices…the correct “setting
of the sails”…will lead us to where we want to go regardless of the external forces that meet us.
Building resilience, both personally and as a team, is vitally important in these times and the foundation to
coming out stronger on the other side of economic challenges.

Scott will share some of the principles that have guided his team through previous economic downturns and
successfully directed them through multiple storms.
