Assessing Risk | General David H. Petraeus

We tend to think about assessing risk in the largest terms possible - on the battlefield, or when financial decisions have billions of dollars at stake. But risk assessment is something we all do every day, from picking the right jacket for the day’s weather to waiting for the light to turn green before we cross the street.
In this episode, we look at how assessing risks both big and small is at the heart of leadership. How do great leaders know when to move forward and when to hold back? What happens when risk assessment goes wrong? How do you develop the experience and instincts to perform the split-second calculus about what might be behind the next corner?
