- The most successful companies have a few metrics they use to drive and align the entire business.
- Want to be a successful startup? Take Richard’s advice: don’t try to be better, be different. " If you’re trying to be better than the biggest competitor, it’s almost impossible to win as a start-up," Lebovitz told ThriveGlobal. "If you really want to compete and grow, you need to focus on being different, not better."
- Richard’s biggest tip for CEOs: Treat the money you raise as if it were your own. "As soon as you lose site of watching the dollars, it’s easy to not only burn cash but lose sight of what’s critical for any healthy business, which is revenue and customers."
- Favorite quote: “Set tough goals and be a good coach.”
- The best way to make radical change is to set radical goals.
