Risk By Stanley McChrystal

A User’s Guide is an insightful and practical guide to understanding and managing risk in leadership, business, and daily life. General Stanley McChrystal, a former U.S. Army General and leadership expert, challenges conventional thinking about risk, arguing that the biggest dangers often come not from external threats but from internal weaknesses—such as poor communication, lack of adaptability, and weak decision-making structures. Through historical examples, military strategy, and corporate case studies, McChrystal provides a framework for building resilient teams and organizations that can navigate uncertainty effectively.
