My advice was to start a policy of making reversible decisions before anyone left the meeting or the office. In a startup, it doesn__ matter if you__e 100 percent right 100 percent of the time. What matters is having forward momentum and a tight fact-based data/metrics feedback loop to help you quickly recognize and reverse any incorrect decisions. That__ why startups are agile.
