They show how to calculate when to make big bets and when to pull back. And they offer supremely practical advice on how we can improve our odds, whether through maximising our networks, learning how to read warning signs, or assessing where best to place our energies. The unforeseen always occurs. Mastering Uncertainty shows you how to prepare for it and make the best use of it. Zusammenfassung 'Mandatory reading.
