Fear and Innovation – A Real-World Example During the 2008 recession, many businesses froze in fear, cutting costs and waiting out the storm. Netflix did the opposite. Recognizing the fear of declining DVD rentals, they leaned into innovation, launching their streaming service. The result? They didn’t just survive—they dominated. Startup and small business leaders, fear can drive you to innovate or drive you to stagnate. Choose wisely. Use fear as a motivator to adapt, create, and thrive. #InnovationMindset #LeadershipGrowth #AdaptAndThrive #FearToFocus #StartupLeadership

Finally the #VCs are getting it: why a founder shopul choose them and not the previous model, where it was the VC that had most of the ledger. At the end of the day the VCs are the middleman piece in a capital flow and generating more capital. An important part, but just a middleman. What is still lagging in the VC world (at least the ones that I have been in contact with) is an understanding of complex problems that require complex and systemic solutions. I know, complexity scares, but at the end of the day , we are facing systemic challanges, that are just being solved (and financed) like a "whack a mole" approach and not a very sustainable one. So I am looking forward to a new approach from VCs that are more humble and knowledgeable to really help in solving the systemic problems we are facing. Unfortuantelty the old VC KPIs are totally outdated in addressing #systemic problems and manging a #polycrisis

New post: The Art of Covering - Lessons from Broadway to Business I saw Suffs: The Musical for the 8th time this weekend and saw a "cover" in a lead role for the first time. Maybe it’s because I personally spend a lot of time professionally “covering” different types of roles in my own fractional work, but I am fascinated by the art of tapping in, temporarily. Here, some lessons learned from Broadway cover (and how to think about this in any business context). https://lnkd.in/eQJd_2NG #business #broadway #startups #covers #fractionalwork #futureofwork

Instead of battling current systems, entrepreneurs should innovate. For example, Netflix didn't compete directly with Blockbuster but created a new model with online streaming, making video rentals obsolete. Entrepreneurs can take inspiration from this by identifying inefficiencies and creating superior solutions that redefine the market. By focusing on innovation, they can set new standards and become industry leaders, driving progress and making old methods irrelevant. #EntrepreneurshipTonic #ThursdayThought #EntrepreneurshipMindset

Here are the 3 things I’ve learned over 20+ years in the media and live-streaming industry: Adaptability is key. The media landscape is constantly evolving, and being able to pivot quickly is essential. From the early days of live streaming with VŽIVO to building Streamlee, embracing change has been one of the biggest factors in my success. Technology is only as good as the team behind it. You can have the most innovative platform, but it’s the people who drive its success. Building a talented, motivated team has been crucial in delivering exceptional results for clients and pushing boundaries in the media tech world. Connections matter. Whether it’s connecting creators with businesses or live streaming a global event, relationships are at the heart of what we do. Over the years, the most impactful work has come from strong partnerships and a shared vision. As I continue to build and grow VŽIVO and Streamlee, these lessons remain core to how I approach every project. #MediaTech #LiveStreaming #Innovation #Leadership #Entrepreneurship #VŽIVO #Streamlee
