- Synopsis
- It's a great myth about risk-taking that since risks average out, they rarely create persistent winners and losers. In fact, as the author points out, nonrandom, or learnable risks do create winners and losers, which means risk is no excuse. No one can guarantee risky results, but wise choices could lead us to risks we are good at evaluating, and unwise choices could lead us to risks we are bad at evaluating. So we must choose well. This chapter provides a simple method for assessing whether you are more likely to win or lose with the various learnable risks of your potential projects. This chapter is excerpted from "Risk Intelligence: Learning to Manage What We Don't Know."
