Description

It’s an expression that dates back to ancient Greece, attributed to mathematician, physicist, and astronomer Archimedes. In modern times, it’s defined as a cry or shout of satisfaction when someone finds or discovers something. And in the world of business, it can be the difference between seizing an opportunity, or walking away out of fear, uncertainty, or a lack of information.  On this season premiere episode of Wheel of Risk, host Alix McCabe focuses on the importance of those “Eureka” or “aha” moments, when entrepreneurs and business leaders make a powerful mental shift to reframe risk as opportunity. With the help of leadership coach and clarity expert Al Herrera, and long-time WoR contributor Justin Seedorf, Allianz Trade’s Regional Vice President for Southwest America, Alix explores everything from why humans tend to default to fear, to the difference between known and unknown risks, to actual Eureka moments behind some real-life success stories. They also discuss the benefits of that shift in thinking to uncover why a simple change in perspective can often lead to better business outcomes.
