Advance Praise for Talent, Strategy, Risk:

“Talent, Strategy, Risk is a must-read for directors, management, and all students of modern twenty-first-century business.” — Muhtar Kent, former Chairman and CEO, The Coca-Cola Company; Board Director, 3M

“Read this book before your investors do! The authors provide fresh new ideas that will forever change the relationship between those who invest in the company, oversee the company, and manage the company.” — Maggie Wilderotter, former Chairman and CEO, Frontier Communications; Board Director, Sana Biotechnology, Lyft, DocuSign, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, and Costco Wholesale

“This is the first book I know of that powerfully establishes the links between talent, strategy, and risk and explains how these three foundations of value creation are being evaluated by investors.
