In this podcast, we look at an interesting B2B startup called Fashion Cloud. In particular to its CTO, Florian Klemt. The business idea that was born out of a strategic pivot shows great promise. It's morphing into something bigger and providing more supportive avenues for end clients.

Key takeaways from the podcast are:

• A human-centric leadership style has a great ROI. One that can't be pinned down in a spreadsheet or ledger but exists non the less

• The pivoting tool in the business toolbox is an important device that should be employed readily to adapt to market needs

• Maintenance and looking after legacy systems is highly recommended. It's not sexy, but tech leaders ought to appreciate the investment that's gone into these systems and work to keep them maintainable.
