Manage episode 346999026 series 3191600
Entrepreneurs and startups make decisions all the time - but what if you realize your decision was wrong?
Daniel Weinand (formerly Co-Founder of Shopify) joined me at START Summit to answer questions about making important decisions:
- What makes good decisions?
- How do I assess risk when making important decisions?
- How do I react to changing circumstances after I've already made a decision?
- How do I evaluate the quality of my decisions?
This much up front: you won't make a good decision without information and advance work.

02:06 Short introduction Daniel
04:07 Daniel's framework on decision making - how do you make great decisions?

08:07 How do you make sure you don't change the decision too early?
10:40 Example Daniel: How do you proceed when you need/want to change a decision?
14:03 Tips for good decisions - and how to avoid bad decisions.
17:32 Bold decisions require scaling
18:36 How do you scale the culture to make a collaboration work?
21:48 Do you think remote work is a risk or an advantage?
