Synopsis
The critical skills taught in this book will help you find working solutions for complicated problems, determine how much risk is acceptable in a situation, learn a process for moving from decision to action, and handle risk with more awareness, skill, and confidence. Decision making always involves some level of risk. Learning the necessary skills to assess and minimize the uncertainty can remove some of the possible damage and fear involved in taking risks. This book presents an array of techniques to analyze and deal with risk, using checklists, exercises, and questionnaires to help you understand your own comfort levels with risk and how you can approach it with greater confidence.
