Editor's Notes

  1. Dee – 30 seconds to frame the panel’s focus
  2. Personal life chaotic? Join a low-impact team that stretches a few, targeted, risktaking muscles. Personal life running smoothly? Diversify your portfolio by adding more professional / career risk.
  3. Each Risktaking Style has its vulnerabilities – environment, situation, and people It’s these vulnerabilities that often become our “blind spots” It’s a small step from blind spot to “emotional hot button”
