Listen "🌴76. The 3-second decision that saved Porsche"
Episode Synopsis
🚗 The Porsche 911 is my favourite car of all time. It’s an icon. A masterpiece. The perfect blend of engineering and emotion.But here’s the wild part: it almost didn’t exist.In 1980, Porsche was struggling. For the first time in their history, they didn’t turn a profit. Sales were down, the new models weren’t taking off, and the board decided that the 911—yes, the 911—was outdated and needed to go.Then, a man named Peter Schutz walked in, took one look at the plan to kill the 911, grabbed a marker… and changed history.🔥 In this episode, you’ll hear:How Porsche nearly killed its most iconic carThe insane moment when one CEO grabbed a pen and rewrote the futureWhy passion sometimes beats logic in business (and life)The lesson I take from this story—and how you can apply it too🔹 Plus, a challenge for you:Where in your life or business are you being told to “move on,” but you know it’s still worth fighting for?What’s the one decision you’ve been hesitating on that could change everything?Where do you need to grab the metaphorical marker and extend the line?📢 Listen now and let’s talk about why some things aren’t meant to be replaced.Sign up for free for my best articles every week: Work Fame.Show notes for every episode at https://podcast.leannehughes.comP.S.
