Navigating Challenges and Changing Content for Media Companies

This week we’re talking about decisions: how to make them, when they go wrong, and the tough decisions that are often forced on you.

We see this clearly in the sharp U-Turn Silicon Valley is making from a series of hiring decisions they all made during the pandemic. It’s become something of a ritual for a SV CEO to announce thousands of job losses and take responsibility for the decisions that led to these cuts.

We discuss everything from how too often people hide behind data to abdicate their responsibility for decision to a framework Troy uses for decisions. Hope you find it valua
