There are too many "optimism" pieces right now that are blind to the reality of the current situation. Dave Sobel, Host of the Business of Tech podcast, addresses these pieces broadly, and specifically responds to the Channel Company's Executive Chairman Robert Faltera's column "These Changes Create An Opportunity We've Not Seen Before". This video addresses why the nuance that is missing is so important, what we can take away from Jim Collin's Good to Great's Stockdale Paradox that is so important right now, and the way to approach optimism in the current climate.

Today, an interview with Peter Melby, CEO of Greystone Technology, a MSP in Denver who has launched the MSP Stimulus Pledge, at www.mspstimuluspledge.com. The pledge states that MSPs will pledge to avoid layoffs, pay bills on time, not increase owners compensation, not make demands of vendors because of the current condition, and run businesses intended to create a strong foundation. This is my interview to learn more, as I certainly had questions, and there is my “why do we care?” segment at the end.  💼 All Our SponsorsSupport the vendors who support the show:👉 https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ 🚀 Join Business of Tech PlusGet exclusive access to investigative reports, vendor analysis, leadership briefings, and more.👉 https://businessof.tech/plus 🎧 Subscribe to the Business of TechWant the show on your favorite podcast app or prefer the written versions of each story?📲 https://www.businessof.tech/subscribe 📰 Story Links & SourcesLooking for the links from today’s stories?Every episode script — with full source links — is posted at:🌐 https://www.businessof.tech 🎙 Want to Be a Guest?Pitch your story or appear on Business of Tech: Daily 10-Minute IT Services Insights:💬 https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/businessoftech 🔗 Follow Business of Tech LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/28908079YouTube: https://youtube.com/mspradioBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/businessof.techInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mspradioTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@businessoftechFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/mspradionews Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
