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.
