Permission to Pivot: A Simple System for Making Life-Changing Turns

You already know something needs to change.

The question isn't whether to pivot. It's how, without losing everything you've built, waiting for perfect timing, or needing anyone's permission.

In Permission to Pivot, Tom Ferrara delivers a practical, proven roadmap for navigating life's most important transitions. Drawing on decades of entrepreneurial success, his own high-stakes pivots, and the motivational science behind the globally trusted MAPP(R) Assessment, used by over 12 million people worldwide, Ferrara shows you how to:

• Spot the signals that it's time to change

Change isn't the risk. Staying stuck is.

Give yourself permission. Everything else follows.
