Editorial Review | "This book is a fascinating exploration of the human tension between seeking new opportunities and protecting the ones we already have, and offers useful insight on how to improve our decision making." -- Michael Gerber, bestselling author of The E-Myth and Awakening the Entrepreneur Within "Wow! The best books teach you how to see the world in a whole new way. Nick manages to do that in the first ten pages. Brimming with anecdotes and research, this is not a risky choice. Grab a copy." -- Seth Godin, author of Tribes "This intriguing and highly readable analysis demonstrates how both groups ["risk managers" or "potential seekers"] can enhance their decision making and is enlivened by dramatic stories of innovators from St. Francis to Bill Gates and scientific reports on impulsiveness in different species and in hyperactive children. Tasler's pragmatic advice on leveraging the talents of both the brash and the bashful make this rewarding reading for anyone in the business world." -- Publishers Weekly |
