S1E23: The Art of Taking Risks -- in Nonprofit Leadership, and in Life
Update: 2023-11-18
Description
I consider myself a risk-taker. Some of my most important accomplishments have come from things I attempted that many people advised me were too risky to go for. In addition, some of my biggest setbacks can be traced to an instance where I took a big risk -- whether I realized it or not at the time -- and it backfired. Yet sometimes I become very cautious and risk-averse. In this podcast, I talk about my approach to risk-taking and also how our ability to assess the work required to get something done or our leverage in a negotiation is imperfect. Seeking to question your own assumptions about risk, leverage, and work requiremetns can lead to some highly valuable insights.
