I Think, Therefore I Pivot: The Lean Startup Philosophy At Work

littlemissdebbie
I just read this question on Quora: ‘What good books tell the story of the business model iterations and pivots of a notable company?’ My response is not a book, but a video of a talk at Y Combinator Startup School

This is a tale of pivot after failure after pivot after failure, over and over, until Brian Chesky of AirBnB (after four unsuccessful launches) finally hit on the formula which became the astonishing success that it is today. The moral? When you’re feeling ready to quit, just try one more pivot.
