How to Know When to Pivot and When to Stay the Course - a Talents on Tap w/Tom Episode S3/EP35

What if I told you that when it comes to "Pivoting" , the thought that you should always pivot when you're not making progress. is a false belief? So what IS true? Listen for the amazing conversation with Tom Miter to find out!

In this Talents on Tap episode,  You will learn when the right time to pivot is and when it's better to stay the course in your business or life!

 

"Have you ever been in a business or even life situation where you realize you pivoted too quickly, you gave up on the process and you changed course, and you realize, looking back, that if I had only stayed doing what I was doing, I'd be that much further ahead?"  

Yes? Me too!  This is my story...

I was in a business situation where I realized I pivoted too quickly and gave up on the process. I changed course and realized that if I had only stayed doing what I was doing, I'd be that much further ahead. Sometimes we keep on the same course way too long and we lose the momentum that we had at the beginning because we should have pivoted a little bit, or at least adjusted the sail slightly to change direction a little bit, or sometimes just a whole new direction.  Tom's story is different - he,  on the other hand, has high consistency and tends to be better at staying the course.  Which at times, can keep him stuck in mediocrity.  Today we are going to talk about when to pivot and when to stay the course and some tips and tools to help you figure out that decision, a really hard decision when that situation arises. 

    In this episode, you will learn the following:

1. When is the best time to pivot in business or in life?
2. What are the signs that it might be time to pivot?
3. What are the consequences of not pivoting when necessary?
4. What are the signs you should hold steady and stay the course?
