Hi everyone, it's Adi Ignatius, editor at large at Harvard Business Review and co host of Idea Cast. I'm dropping into your feed today to let you know about a show from our friends at Harvard Business School. It's called The Founder Mindset, and it's hosted by serial founder and Harvard Business School senior lecturer Reza Satu. The sho is a master class in what it really takes to be a successful founder. In each episode, Raza sits down with some of the world's most successful entrepreneurs Including Reese Witherspoon, Kevin O'Leary, Galen Weston, and more.
And pushes them to break down exactly how they commit. Decide and build for impact. Today we're sharing Ray's recent conversation with Tim Ferris, the entrepreneur investor, best selling author of the four hour workweek, and host of one of the world's most influential podcasts. You'll hear Tim reflect on experimentation, his approach to calibrated risk taking, and how he makes decisions under uncertainty. Plus he'll explain why curiosity and learning have shaped nearly every chapter of his career. Before you give it a listen, make sure to follow the founder mindset with Raise A Statue wherever you get your podcasts.
I from the very beginning had been hyper vigilant about Minimizing losses. It is actually someone who is calculating risk at all times and who isn't paralyzed by that risk. Most things aren't gonna work out. In the world of building companies. Nobody cares. This is the founder mindset. With Raisea Satu. Every year at Harvard Business School, hundreds of students compete to gain entrance into my class.
