Leverage uncertainty and the unknown as the path to innovation, impact, and “smart luck.”
How can we set ourselves up for this “smart luck,” to be able to turn the unexpected into positive outcomes, in even the most challenging of contexts? Dr. Christian Busch, the director of the CGA Global Economy Program at New York University and author of "The Serendipity Mindset: The Art and Science of Creating Good Luck" will tell us how on the November Listen Up! Show.
More about The Serendipity Mindset
Modern life can feel like an endless sequence of plans, last-minute meetings, and delayed journeys. So how can we use unpredictability to our advantage? LSE and NYU academic Dr Christian Busch has spent a decade exploring how we can use uncertainty as a pathway to more joyful, purposeful and successful lives. In this book, he reveals the secrets behind the hidden force that rules the universe: serendipity. The book is based on cutting-edge research in the natural and social sciences, as well as hundreds of interviews including with leading CEOs, entrepreneurs, and changemakers from around the world who turned the unexpected into opportunity by seeing and connecting the dots. Anchored in a science-based framework and peppered with inspiring stories and hands-on exercises, it captures how all of us can cultivate serendipity and turn uncertainty into opportunity, joy, and sustained success.
