What the heck happened? There you were, thriving in a growing economy with unprecedented unemployment and enough work to keep your firm busy for months if not years. In a flash, it all evaporated.

Today, I’m speaking with Doug Sleeter. We start with a bit of his backstory including his time in the early days at Adobe and then as an evangelist for Apple. We move on to a topic that he’s championed called Agility Trumps Ability which really talks about the need for businesses to be more than just competent - then must really be more nimble in order to survive.

I am sharing my thoughts related to how man has evolved over the past 200,000 years and then looking at the brief history of business. My thesis is that we are off to a bad start and there's much more evolution that needs to occur before we nail down this "business-thing".
