"The competitive advantage for a team is simply sticking together long enough to figure it out."

Scott Belsky, Chief Product Officer and EVP - Creative Cloud at Adobe, knows what separates good teams from great ones. He's a successful startup entrepreneur and a prolific early-stage investor in companies like Warby Parker, Outdoor Voices, Flexport, Pinterest, Uber (and Convictional, of course). 

In this conversation from our live NYC event, Scott shares some of his leadership insights with Chris. Topics they cover include:

• How leaders can create a learning organization
• Why merchandising progress is necessary
• How to hack short-term rewards systems for long-term success

Their conversation was all too brief, but has plenty of leadership insights you can apply to your own organization immediately.
