Vision versus Hallucination – Founders and Pivots « Steve Blank

Pivot a week.....

1:19 PM Sep 04 2012

Never pivot every week. Great lessons learned:

1. Founders are great at seeing things others don’t – at times it’s a vision, most often it’s a hallucination.

2. Founders want immediate action – often they call it a pivot.

3. A Pivot should not be an excuse for a lack of a coherent strategy or a lack of impulse control.

4. Disconnect your insights from your mouth for 72-hours.

5. If you can unilaterally overrule your co-founders there are no brakes on you.

6. Your board members are not your brainstorm buddies. Find others you trust.
