Pivot or Die: How Leaders Thrive When Everything Changes

Rapid and unpredictable change demands leaders who remain flexible, adapt and act. Drawing from his book Pivot or Die: How Leaders Thrive When Everything Changes, Gary Shapiro, Executive Chair of the Consumer Technology Association, shares a practical framework for navigating disruption and positioning organizations for success. Through real-world examples and lessons from more than four decades at the forefront of technology and innovation, Gary examines four types of pivots—and explains how resilience, curiosity and foresight help leaders thrive when everything changes.
