Listen "The Most Dangerous Person on Your Team Isn’t a Risk-Taker"
Episode Synopsis
Can a team be made up entirely of aggressive, play-to-win people? Or do you need the balance of risk-conscious players who pump the brakes? This episode breaks down a fascinating leadership question: the fundamental difference between people who play to win versus those who play not to lose—and why it matters for building your team. Discover the critical distinction between two types of "play not to lose" people: Type 1 who intelligently mitigate risk with confidence versus Type 2 who operate from fear and low self-esteem. Learn why the best CEO partnerships involve a play-to-win leader paired with a Type 1 risk calculator (like the CFO who fought like cats and dogs but made the organization stronger), and why Type 2 players create toxic opportunity cost that kills long-term growth.//Welcome to Repeatable Revenue, hosted by strategic growth advisor , Ray J.
