Creating Value by Ken Scott

Written by Riyah Davies on May 19, 2020

We recently published a new report, Unlocking Value, Saving Jobs: The Contribution of Turnaround to Business and People, demonstrating the vital role IFT members make in saving jobs and preserving value for UK plc. The report aims to increase understanding of turnaround as an essential business discipline that can help avoid unnecessary insolvencies, especially at a time when business recovery is even more important to the economy and to people.

The report also demonstrates how turnaround establishes the inherent value in businesses.  Here, IFT member, Ken Scott, draws on his experience as a business leader and turnaround expert, citing examples of how businesses have pivoted during the Covid-19 disruption to rethink their value proposition.
