Description
Stan McChrystal's Control: A Leader's Guide to Risk is a practical guide for navigating uncertainty in business and life. By focusing on ten key dimensions of control, McChrystal offers a framework for mitigating risk and building resilience. Drawing on his experience as a military leader and business consultant, McChrystal illustrates how these ten factors - including narrative, bias, action, timing, adaptability, communication, technology, diversity, structure, and leadership - are often at play in real-world situations. With compelling examples from both the military and business worlds, he shows how considering these factors can help individuals and organizations prepare for and respond to risk. By applying McChrystal's system of control, readers can develop a stronger defense against the risks they face, even if they cannot see into the future.
