Most of the time, the word risk is associated with fear and uncertainty. We tend to struggle with harnessing the power of risk-taking. But the first bold step sheds light on that. As Christie mentioned in this episode, "An intentional and strategic risk, even when the output is not what you desired, still can propel you further than if you made the consistent choice to play it safe."

In this episode, we discussed the power of intentional risk-taking in building one's career. We spoke about how to encourage women to take chances on themselves to face intentional, intelligent, and strategic risks.

Christie Hunter Arscott is a leading expert on how we can harness the power of intentional risk-taking to create more dynamic and vibrant careers and organizations. A Rhodes Scholar, Christie has been named by Thinkers50 as one of the top management thinkers likely to shape the future of business.

Her article "Why So Many Thirtysomething Women Are Leaving Your Company" was selected for the Harvard Business Review collection of the top articles on diversity.

Christie has spoken worldwide to organizations and institutions, including the World Economic Forum, Harvard Business School, the University of Oxford, and the Global Women's Forum for the Economy and Society. Her corporate clients include Bacardi, Deloitte, PWC, HSBC, and more.
