Ebook Why managers and companies take risks - Les Coleman

Ebook "Why managers and companies take risks" uses risk in its dictionary meaning as the probabiHty of an unde­ sirable outcome, and has two research questions: when managers make de­ cisions, what leads them to choose a risky alternative? and: what deter­ mines whether the decision proves correct? Answers to these questions form a model of decision making that explains the process and results of managers' risk-taking in the real world.
