[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you had any real knowledge of startups, you would know that startup executives make bad decisions all the time. The issue is not whether, but when and how they respond. Ask any sucessful CEOs. By any measure, Komen has been a great success. That does not mean that Komen has made no mistakes.

Step up, tell us who you are and show us your real knowledge. [/quote]

I regularly (daily) work with start-ups, both for profits and nonprofits.   I serve as a business advisor, director, investor, etc, depending on the situation.  There is not a start-up that I know that has not made a mistake or two.   Every CEO that I know will tell you that he or she, in fact, learns more from mistakes than successes.  Read any business book by a business executive, and they will tell you the same thing.  Komen has been a great success, though the PP decision was idiotic.  But, as noted above, the mistake here did not cause death or property damage, did not involve a criminal act or a civil violation (even a minor violation).  Komen made a stupid business decision and then quickly reversed it.  [/quote]
