Pivot! How to Move Forward Without Starting Over

Have you ever heard of a company stuck maintaining 25-year-old legacy code, desperately trying to keep pace with modern demands? Or a startup still relying on its original, outdated architecture, hoping to become a household name?

Or maybe you’re grappling with a hybrid approach, where legacy systems and new builds are clashing, leading to tech debt and constant roadblocks?

In today’s fast-paced tech world, it’s easy to feel trapped, especially when your company is at a crossroads and doesn’t know which direction to go. The pressure to either transform or rip and replace can be overwhelming.

But here’s the truth: You don’t have to make huge investments or launch a million-dollar transformation to get back on track. In fact, some of the world’s most successful companies have found ways to pivot and innovate while maintaining their legacy systems. You can too.

Drawing from my years of experience in high-end tech consulting, where I’ve helped companies clean up messes just like this, this session will guide you through actionable strategies to pivot right where you are today. Whether you're a startup, a mid-market company, or an enterprise, this talk will provide you with a roadmap to:
* Tackle tech debt without an overwhelming overhaul.
* Balance legacy code with modern development.
* Leverage incremental changes to drive big results.
* And more…

You’ll leave this session equipped with concrete tools to implement in your own organization, without the need for a massive budget or risky "rip-and-replace" strategies.

Note: This talk can also be tailored into an interactive workshop where attendees will work through actionable plans for their next steps.

Target Audience: Leaders, Managers, and decision-makers navigating complex technical landscapes and wanting to find sustainable ways forward.
