Your company is bleeding. The tariff just hit. Your board wants answers. You have 48 hours.
But sometimes the brutal truth is that the warning signs were there 20-years ago.
In this episode, Marcel Melzer stops the scroll with his contrarian claim: strategic decisions should take 48 hours, not months.
