This should be management team and board required reading. I can't understate the need for management teams to adjust for changes in the market. Radical changes, may require radical adjustments. Or at least radical self-inspection. CEO's have to lead through times such as these. I like the advice laid out in the NYTIMES today from Ron Conway, High Tech investor extraordinaire - He is even more terse and directed than Peter's based on successful execution across the tech bubble. Cut costs, raise money, acquire companies... move! It's worth comparing to your current strategy. http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/10/08/godfather-tells-start-ups-to-fire-people-and-raise-cash/ Great Post.
