How can you pivot your business expansion strategy when things go wrong?
Lots of great comments by many many smart people below! I only suggest one thing....let go of your pride. Too many times we make business decisions that are bad for ourselves our our companies and yet we hold on to them too long due to pride. Pride is a killer and leads to big downfalls. Look at Kodak, Blockbuster and so many others...their pride got in the way. When it's time to pivot, get good wisdom from trusted peers (and not just "yes" people) and let go of the pride. The sooner the better... My two cents...

You're leading a cross-functional team. What team-building strategies will help you achieve success?
Give the team a common goal to achieve, or a common “enemy” to defeat. Most “teams” are not real teams and rather are a group of talented individuals. Best teams have shared experiences, shared goals, shared challenges, shared victories…and defeats. Without the team having the shared experience to build on, it can not truly be a high performing team and is simply a group of individuals in the same place at the same time

You’re managing a team of data analysts. How can you ensure their work is accurate and effective?
When managing a team of high performers like data analysts, it’s important to remember to start with the end in mind. Each member of the team has to understand the end goal and desired outcome so that they can tailor their outputs accordingly. In addition, when leading a team like this it’s important to ask questions vs making statements, ensuring they have freedom on how to think vs being told what to think. A culture of awareness, intentionality and accountability will ensure the team consistently over delivers on desired outcomes
