Description:

In this presentation, Andrew reflects on key moments in his 30+ year career where challenges became opportunities for growth. From navigating financial crises like the SVB meltdown at Realtime Robotics to driving strategic cost reductions at Alert Innovation that led to Walmart's acquisition, Andrew demonstrates how resilience and adaptability are crucial in turning setbacks into successes.

Common learning points include the importance of strategic thinking, the ability to pivot in the face of adversity, and the value of cross-functional collaboration. These experiences illustrate how each closed door can lead to new, even greater opportunities with the right mindset and approach.
