Mindset Mondays with DTK – Ep #093 — Open your umbrella.I recently came across a scathing slapback for which John Maynard Keynes is credited. In fact, so is Winston Churchill. Sadly we have no definitive proof of the origin of this stellar rejoinder: "When the facts change, I change my mind.

They both work best when open.Facts change, circumstances evolve, environments shift. With the speed at which change is now occurring, one can no longer afford a closed mind – one which ignores a change in favor of existing knowledge. A closed mind is left behind.When things change, what do you do?
