There are a few different ways a business may go about turning around their business:
Emergency action plan - achieve positive cash flow as soon as possible by eliminating departments, reducing staff, etc.
Business restructuring - once positive cash flow is achieved, the strategic plan is implemented, improving continuing operations, adjusting the product mix and repositioning products if necessary. The management team begins to focus on achieving sustained profitability.
Return to normalcy - the company becomes profitable and the changes are internalized. Employees regain confidence in the firm and emphasis is placed on growing the restructured business while maintaining a strong balance sheet.
A common method is to manage the asset, debt and cash flow of a company in order to maximize returns to secured creditors and allow the company to return to profitability and keep its employees.
