Taking Inventory



When I was in high school, I found out from a friend that retailers hired students to help their employees take annual inventory of items in their stores. I wasn't totally clear on all the reasons why they did it, but I understood that they needed to assess everything of value to their organization for accounting and tax purposes.


After such a difficult, exhausting and disappointing year, we are taking inventory of all that we value in our company, but beyond accounting and tax reasons.


Although people are clearly not "assets", in a consulting company like Levvitate, the expertise of our human resources is what differentiates us from other providers. We don't sell products, or even services---we sell knowledge and the application of that knowledge to various businesses and in different industries.


Levvitate's consultancy has taken a hit in 2020. We have not been as fortunate as some businesses that have been able to continue operations without a hitch. As we take inventory of all that we have missed out on in terms of business deals, or financial position we may have lost in 2020, we recognize that the most important thing is that we are still here. And because we are, there is still opportunity for us in the future.


We wish everyone a safe and happy holiday as you take inventory of what is most important to you.





At Levvitate, we take inventory to assess not just what we value, but whom we value.
