Daniel Kang: The Super Upside Factor, Gebunden

Klappentext

Structuring the asymmetries of luck, outliers, and systems to work in your favor
The Super Upside Factor: Asymmetric Principles That'll 10x Your Life is a precise guide applying the tested asymmetric principles used in venture capital and startups to individual careers.
Venture capitalists manage to raise, invest, and gain hundreds of billions of dollars despite being wrong the vast majority of the time. The magnitude of the handful of wins are outrageously disproportionate to create success. Likewise, individuals don't need a 90% success rate; but crush a few right things with exponential upsides with floored downsides for an extraordinary level of success.
The book draws on Daniel Kang's firsthand experience applying and refining application of these principles in a variety of contexts as a startup founder backed by Y-Combinator; venture capitalist at Softbank Vision Fund; pilot sponsored by the government; and now an author published with Wiley.
In this book, the author presents a practical framework applying these principles, discussing topics like:
Precise mechanics of asymmetric principles in relation to probability, statistics, and empirical outcomes in industries and careers.
Compounding benefits of applying asymmetric principles that maximize your surface area of luck, create no-loss scenarios, and lead to unfair systems that make wins a matter of time.
Tools and first steps of going beyond discrete asymmetric opportunities and creating a "life portfolio" of uncapped upsides at scale.

The Super Upside Factor: Asymmetric Principles That'll 10x Your Life will leave readers with a crisp understanding of asymmetric principles and definite next steps to apply these principles in their own lives to achieve extraordinary outcomes--even for the risk averse.
