Mindset with Brian Murphy: Knowing When To Pivot

ReliaQuest Founder and CEO Brian Murphy made a critical decision in 2012 to pivot when he realized the current strategy was no longer sustainable. In this episode with ReliaQuest's Director of Mental Performance Derin McMains, Murph discusses the challenges he faced when he chose to shut down an entire revenue stream.
