Why Managers and Companies Take Risks By Les Coleman
2006 | 349 Pages | ISBN: 3790816957 | PDF | 4 MB


The book answers a simple question: when managers and companies face a decision with two outcomes that are safe and risky, what leads them to choose the risky alternative? The answer starts with a detailed review of the theory behind risk and decision making by managers. The book then gathers real-world evidence using two surveys of senior managers and directors to analyze why they take risks, and how companies control risks.
