🚀 Ever felt like your startup is moving, but you are unsure if it is heading in the right direction? That is where pivoting comes in - the art of shifting at the right time while staying true to your vision.
At DSeTC Consulting, we had the privilege of engaging with Nanjunda Palecanda P alongside Bhabani Shankar Satapathy and Satish Nerlekar in a powerful discussion on when and how to pivot for success.
What made this session different? It wasn’t just talk - it was raw, real, and straight from entrepreneurial battlefields.
👥 Your customers create your next customers. Treat them well, and they’ll bring you more.
🎁 Givers succeed. The best founders focus on creating value first—revenue follows.
🤝 Cofounders’ alignment isn’t optional—it’s survival. If you’re not in sync, the business won’t last.
🔥 Founders who don’t take ownership don’t make it. If it’s not your problem, your startup won’t have a solution.
📈 Valuation follows value creation. If you chase numbers over substance, it’s a short-lived win.
🗣️ Every conversation is a marketing channel. What people say about you defines your brand.
💸 Discounts aren’t a client acquisition strategy. Price cuts can’t replace smart, sustainable growth.
⚠️ Being “too nice” kills businesses. Tough calls—not people-pleasing—drive long-term success.
💡 One eye-opening insight? While India’s top 100 listed companies have seen skyrocketing market cap growth, their headcount growth is shockingly low. This proves the shift towards lean, scalable, and high-impact businesses.
At DSeTC Consulting, we’re embracing these insights to pivot towards sustainable growth, digital transformation, and real value creation.
🙏 A huge thank you to Nanjunda Palacenda for these game-changing insights and to Bhabani S Satpathy and Satish N, iPreneur team for making this discussion so impactful!
