TopicHeard in 1 episode across 1 show since Jul 2026
A business pivot is a structured course correction designed to test a new hypothesis about a product, strategy, or engine of growth. Popularized by Eric Ries in the Lean Startup methodology, it involves fundamentally changing a business model's direction while keeping one foot rooted in what has already been learned. Common types of pivots include zoom-in, zoom-out, customer segment, and technology pivots.
