Glenn Kelman thought of himself as a software guy. Then he became CEO of a real-estate company called Redfin, but insisted on seeing it as a software company. Confusion reigned. Cultures clashed. For Kelman, it would come to highlight an often-unspoken business challenge: BIZ Experiencesship means exploring unknown paths, sometimes leading BIZ Experiencess to a very different place from where they started. The result can challenge not just their business philosophies but their very sense of identity.
