Leaders should encourage their organizations by being brutally honest and giving the team options amidst these tough times. There is no other way to present the problem, there is no other way to sugar-coat and neither should it be.

Tell the folks in your organization to spend wisely, save fiercely. Monitor expenses more closely and ensure that the money in your firm is being used to its maximum. Cut out unnecessary expenses and expenditures. Inject motivation into your organization by rewarding cost-saving measures and disciplined behavior.
