Talking Risk Video – Anti-Fragility – 3 Part Series

Dave Whitefield and James Ellis have a conversation on the couch around the concept of anti-fragility.

They pose the question: “What is the opposite of fragile?”

The answer is not what we would normally assume. The guys discuss the concept of exposure to stress and risk actually making us stronger, using the simple example of the human body to illustrate. However, The temptation in business is to reduce harm, randomness, chaos and variation to a point where people and the organisation become much more fragile and less able to cope with major problems when they develop.
