<blockquote><p><em>We would rather suffer the visible costs of a few bad decisions than  incur the many invisible costs that come from decisions made too slowly –  or not at all – because of a stifling bureaucracy.</em> &#8212; Warren Buffett</p></blockquote>
<p>Lesson #2 from the Veature Beat article is to admit mistakes and move on.  And you can&#8217;t move on if you can&#8217;t move.  It&#8217;s certainly easy to say, but it&#8217;s oftentimes tremendously difficult to do in many organizations.  Cheers to Warren for calling attention to the value of being agile and able to respond to mistakes quickly.</p>
