Business is hard! No one ever says it is easy, yet each year thousands of brave people start a business. At almost the same rate each year thousands of businesses fail, get into financial distress, and/or cease operating.
In Triage: The art of business turnarounds, author Stephen Barnes masterfully guides you through his process of rescuing a struggling business and transforming it into a thriving success story.
Drawing from years of real-world experience and a deep understanding of the dynamics that shape businesses, Stephen Barnes unveils the secrets of effective distressed business triage. He explains why businesses become distressed, how to identify the warning signs, and then explains his successful Triage process to address the immediate issues and then stabilise the business.
Whether you are a sole trader, company owner or director, or a CEO that is facing unexpected challenges or navigating turbulent waters, this book is your indispensable guide to revitalising your business.

Person
Stephen has been advising businesses for over 30 years - from very small, sole trader businesses through to large multinationals, and everything in between. It is more than a job to Stephen - it is a passion. Success to Stephen (and yes enjoyment) is helping a business survive, become sustainable and prosper. He is very mindful that a business is about people and each stakeholder is a person. He understands that business owners not only have a financial responsibility, but they are accountable and responsible to people - employees, their own family, suppliers (and their employees and families), banks, landlords, the local community etc. This is what keeps Stephen awake at night during a turnaround - the impact and the ramifications of actions, or inactions, on other people. Stephen is a Chartered Accountant (CA), Certified Restructuring and Turnaround Practitioner (RTP), Fellow of Governance Institute Australia FGIA), Fellow Australian Corporate Treasurers Association (FACTA), Fellow Institute of Community Directors (FICDA), Certified Mental Health First Aider.
