As you lead your company to new heights of growth, the question is not simply how bold you’re willing to be. It’s how you decide which risks are still worth taking relative to your purpose, and how to adapt as risks change in real time.
In this Quick Take episode, we discuss the three questions Scott always asks before any climb, which also apply to bold transformational growth. This includes assessing the constantly changing risk/reward ratio relative to your purpose. We also discuss ways to anticipate and minimize the critically important challenges that can unexpectedly arise along the journey. Finally, we share ways to monitor your real-time progress and stay aware of constantly changing conditions.
“The higher you climb, whether it’s on a cliff or in business, the more important it is to ensure that the evolving risks and rewards are in line with your purpose.” – Pam Harper
