With dire news around the spread of the deadly coronavirus came staggering uncertainty for business leaders. How should they respond? Among restaurateurs, owners were forced to make incredibly consequential decisions in the snap of a finger. They had to look into the fog and consider how long this new world would last. Pivoting operations is expensive&＃8212;and hard to justify for only a few months. Fail to pivot quickly enough, however, and opportunity is lost, people lose jobs, businesses shutter. We look through the eyes and the experience of James Beard Award-winning chef and restaurateur Gerard Craft, owner of&＃160;Niche Food Group, a group of restaurants in St. Louis and Nashville. We explore what decisions he faced in the first weeks of the pandemic, what lessons he quickly learned, how he pivoted and how his decisions differed from colleagues in the industry. The bigger story here is about how to lead through uncertainty. We also talk to WashU Olin Business School scholars&＃160;Elanor Williams, associate professor of marketing, and&＃160;Peter Boumgarden, Koch Professor of Practice in Family Enterprise, to share what history and research tells us about leading through these situations.
