Behind every organizational failure, was a leader who saw the weak signals, and refused to listen.&amp;nbsp; McGrath also discusses the role of clear facts in future decision-making and why waiting for the data is a fatal choice.&amp;nbsp; If you're at risk of being disrupted or seeing customers slowly leaving you for other solutions, THIS episode is your weak signal of a coming inflection point. You should probably listen before it's too late.&amp;nbsp; The Justin Brady Show https://www.justinbradyshow.com <iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/23297786/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/88AA3C/" height="90" width="600" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe> https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/content/129011915
