From the course: Sallie Krawcheck on Risk-Taking

Welcome

- Think about the last time you took a big risk. Think about the last time you didn't take a big risk. What was holding you back? Risk, it's an uncomfortable topic for a whole bunch of us. The truth is the pace of change in business today is so great that if you're not taking a risk, you're taking a risk. And great risk-taking is the foundation for having a successful and fulfilling career. I'm Sally Krawcheck. I spent my career on Wall Street. I've run firms like Smith Barney and Merrill Lynch, and today I'm an entrepreneur. So, I've built a career thinking about, analyzing and taking risk. Being a great risk-taker is not about being bold. It's not about being crazy. It's not about being a hedge fund manager. Being a great risk-taker is all about being thoughtful, being analytical, and I'm gonna walk you through that in this course.
