In Silicon Valley alone, this means that more than 5,400 of the current 6,000 startups will flounder and disappear. But risky and cash-strapped start-ups are not the only corporate fatalities: More than 60% of the original Fortune 500 corporations no longer exist. Given these statistics, how can organizational leaders and their employees beat the odds and survive? The only solution is to question the usual business practices, re-think how to lead and inspire, challenge the accepted beliefs, and toss out the failures to accelerate business growth and profitability. Using Marcia's three-part stop, start, transform method, readers will learn to pursue significant untapped opportunities, achieve their organization's competitive edge, and pivot, disrupt, and adapt to unexpected levels of success.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marcia Daszko\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1635764742\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781635764741\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Diversion Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/16\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.20w x 0.90d","brand":"Marcia Daszko","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43984795107583,"sku":"9781635764741","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_62728e99-a309-4a8e-8f85-6dce50db85d4.jpg?v=1683274209","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/pivot-disrupt-transform-marcia-daszko-9781635764741","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
