# Vistage Releases Research Report

Expert contribution by [Kathleen Quinn Votaw](https://talentrust.com/team/kathleen-quinn-votaw): “It’s time to rethink your people strategies”

When uncertainty is high, it’s harder for CEOs to make decisions. The latest report from Vistage research, *Decision Factors: Climb to Recovery*, aims to guide CEOs through the journey to the new reality. First by reflecting on the impact of the crisis on small and midsize businesses (SMBs), and then by exploring potential routes to recovery in a volatile economic climate. Drawing upon insights from top experts in the Vistage community, this report provides CEOs with actionable perspectives on four areas of business optimization. Those four areas include: talent, customers, operations, and financials. The report also explores different approaches to top leadership challenges.
