Little Bets: How Breakthrough Ideas Emerge from Small Discoveries
$7.95
What do Apple CEO Steve Jobs, comedian Chris Rock, prize-winning architect Frank Gehry, and the story developers at Pixar films all have in common? Bestselling author Peter Sims found that rather than start with a big idea or plan a whole project in advance, they make a methodical series of little bets, learning critical information from lots of little failures and from small but significant wins.

- Discover why methodically taking small, experimental steps outperforms starting with a big idea or planning an entire project in advance.
- Reveal extraordinary outcomes by making a series of little bets about what might be a good direction to take and learning critical information from lots of little failures.
