Pivot: How Top Entrepreneurs Adapt and Change Course to Find Ultimate Success

To all of those who have shared my dream of making a difference in our companies and the world, this book is for you—our collective wisdom of what innovation is and will be. I could not have written it without all the valuable learning experiences we have shared together for over 30 years. You are not just colleagues but friends, and I thank you. This book is also for Monique, my partner in business and in life, and Tara, our very much loved dog whom we almost lost in the final days of writing this book. Their love and support throughout the process have been unconditional; and, of course, I cannot forget Nikita, seizing every opportunity to be the center of attention. And for Dad, whom we did lose on July 31st, 2013. You are far better off where you are now. I know how proud you would have been to see the final product.

To my beautiful wife, Barbi Bistrowitz, you inspire me every day with your smarts, and you have partnered with me on so many startups—this book could not have been written without your love and support. This book is also for my mom, Hilda, who instilled the entrepreneurship bug in me with crackers and cheese. I don't think I could have gotten through this book, much less this life, without my pets past and present; you will always have a space in my heart and mind. Not to be forgotten, to my dad, Pepe—this one's for you.
