“Daniella has compiled a diverse and distinct set of experiences and views as she helps the reader assess perspectives in risk.” —Connie Lindsey, Executive Vice President, Head of Corporate Social Responsibility and Global Diversity and Inclusion, Northern Trust “Every time a woman chooses security and the safe bet over something new, she is missing the opportunity to achieve greater success and fulfillment in work and in life. Ready, Set...RISK! is filled with real-life stories that are engaging and inspiring....a very practical guide to developing the confidence and the ability to take calculated risks that lead to great reward.” — Debbie Storey, Senior Vice President, Talent Development and Chief Diversity Officer, AT&T In general, women approach career-related decisions that entail risk differently than men do, and take fewer risks in their careers than men do. Are you the type of person who regularly takes career risks but is disappointed with returns, or someone who does not take career risks because you are concerned about the consequences? Do you only have an appetite for limited risk so need every career risk to count, or are you a serial career risk taker who wishes to set new highs in your risk-taking returns as you progress in your career? In this book Daniella Levitt explores why risk taking is an essential part of any woman’s career management and advancement strategy. Ready, Set...RISK! is the indispensable ‘how to’ of successful risk taking in your career.

This book develops the notion that companies can succeed on the basis of risk management, much as companies compete on efficiency, costs, labor, location, and other dimensions. The reality of risk and how it impacts companies is that it is much more definite, often catastrophic and looks more like a shock. This is striking, as a difference between firms on risk different than a marginal difference in operating efficiencies, for example. Competing on Risk Management requires a discipline, a commitment to using information and recognizing shocks and then acting upon those to redistribute assets. This book will examine how leading firms that compete on risk have done this and showcase best practices and impacts to the capital structure of firms and their organizational formation.
