Philippe Weiss Discusses Turning Crisis Into Opportunity on WGN Radio’s Noon Business Lunch

Philippe Weiss, president of Seyfarth at Work, was interviewed on WGN Radio Chicago’s "Noon Business Lunch" on September 15, 2026, where he discussed how businesses can turn crises into opportunities.

Weiss explained that companies should not view challenging situations solely as threats, pointing to Greenland's recent efforts to leverage geopolitical uncertainty into new investment opportunities.

He noted that many organizations have similarly found lasting growth opportunities during difficult periods, including throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Weiss advised business leaders to approach crises creatively, look beyond immediate challenges, and seek opportunities to expand through new partnerships, revenue streams, and market connections.

The full discussion can be heard at the 4:53 mark of the episode, "Noon Business Lunch 9/15/26: Caring companies, crisis management, market volatility, diesel prices, Fed policy decision."
