The Startup of You Podcast

If You Don't Find Risk, Risk Will Find You


Listen Later

If you aren't pained by the risk involved in a potential career move, it's probably not a breakout opportunity. In fact, one of the riskiest things you can do in your career is try to eliminate risk altogether. Risk is omnipresent. You need to know how to evaluate it, and to build resilience against risks you can't anticipate.

 

On this episode of the Startup of You Podcast, Reid and Ben share tips and frameworks for taking smart risks in your career, including how to: overcome your natural bias to avoid risks, know whether you’re walking through a “one-way door” or a “two-way door” when making a crucial decision at work, and look for hidden opportunities in environments where others feel fear and uncertainty.
