Don’t Stop Trying Things | Reed CEO James Reed

James Reed says the defining decision of his career came early: joining the family business founded by his father. In this episode of Executive Decisions, the Reed CEO reflects on the pressure of following a parent, the anxiety of stepping away from a different path and why he believed failure could mean leaving the business altogether. What came out of that decision, and the many bets, reinventions and mistakes that followed, was a simple rule: the worst decision is to stop trying things.
