There Are No Safe Bets in Business Anymore

The myth of the "safe bet" is holding your organization back 🚫
Most leaders still believe they can find guaranteed wins. Spoiler alert: they can't.
"Even when something is labeled as a safe bet, it's not going to be a safe bet."
Instead of chasing certainty, successful organizations are learning to experiment fast and fail cheap.
"The language of seeking safe bets is indicative that the organization isn't comfortable with experiments or bets that don't pay out."
Break big projects into small tests. Learn quickly. Adapt faster.
That's how you win when there are no safe bets left.
