When leadership teams use analysis to avoid difficult decisions

My leadership team and I have been talking for three months about whether to pivot our product strategy but every conversation ends with us agreeing to gather more data, and I think we're using analysis as a way to avoid making a decision that might prove us wrong about something fundamental. We've become people who can examine every angle except the possibility that we're afraid to choose.
