Maybe I'm too Buddhist or something but "pivot" has come to mean, "observing and adapting to what the universe is saying," which is another word for not being obstinate. It's a linguistic gang sign the insecure flash to show their starters group membership.

It irritates me because listening to MBAs speak is an exercise in suicide preparation, and starters are accumulating their own distinct but equivalent lexicon of fancy words that refer to simple, everyday concepts.
