Today’s Takeaways
Expect the unexpected.
Have confidence that your passion will be successful—especially if you know there’s a better way than what’s being done now.
Conduct an annual review of self; take this as seriously as your professional annual review.
The importance of having an “outside” confidant or advisor.
Why not now?
Constant evolution.
For a company, success comes down to people and culture and starts at the top. Surround yourself with good people, not necessarily just top talent.
Besides having a good idea and team, if you’ve started a business, ultimately there has to be a return on that investment to be sustainable.
There is no substitute for being present as a leader.
Move forward—there is no “right time.”
