🔆 First-principles in times of crisis

“In times of crisis, you can’t act out of fear; you need to act out of sobriety.”

It’s a quote from Devin Bramhall, former CEO of Animalz.

We explore the big lessons she learned taking over the CEO role at Animalz – and what it took to grow the business by 200% in two years of pandemic and economic crisis.

  • She reflects on her misjudgments and the traps she fell into without even realizing it.

  • How to avoid making fear-based decisions or becoming overconfident
  • How to keep everyone focused and committed when times are tough
