RISK-ACADEMY Blog

If you can’t join the livestream, you can learn more about the topics above in Dr. Sam Savage’s newest book, Chancification: How to Fix the Flaw of Averages. Many of the summit speakers are featured in the book, and topics include the Arithmetic of Uncertainty, speaking uncertainty to power, military readiness, pandemic modeling, and the technology of Chancification.

Chancification shows how to solve the problems of dealing with uncertainty exposed by Dr. Savage’s earlier book, The Flaw of Averages: Why We Underestimate Risk in the Face of Uncertainty (John Wiley & Sons, 2009, 2012).
