    As the CEO of a national emergency management and business continuity planning firm in a field that is deeply committed to process improvement after disaster, we know the value of failing and then evaluating that failure to be prepared for the next disaster. We teach our clients that they need to "fail spectacularly" during the disaster drill so that they don't fail when the disaster strikes. In our business, we have taken that approach to trying to fail fast so we can get to a process, a system, etc. to better serve our clients across the country. This session will share our "fail fast" approach and how we have successfully pivoted to grow our consulting company. Those pivot action steps are the thing that will allow you to learn how to make your process, business, etc. better. In addition, we will share case studies of other companies who failed fast and won big time.
