What would you do if you woke up to a newspaper headline calling you the Merchant of Death? Would you re-think the course you were on and pivot to a new path? In this episode, Glenn relates the story of a person who did just that - a person whose pivot has inspired countless innovators and their ideas. But a pivot does not always work out and is not an easy call for an entrepreneur to make. Listen in as Doug and Glenn talk about some of the reasons to pivot and some of the reasons it can be so hard to do.
