I can name recent significant risks I've taken or approved.
I weigh the risk of inaction, not just the risk of action.
I take calculated risks with a plan for the most likely failure, not just the best case.
I protect the careers of people whose well-reasoned risks failed.
I distinguish thoughtful risk-taking from recklessness.
I push against safety-at-the-expense-of-growth in my decisions.
I model risk-taking so my team knows it's actually safe.
People bring me bold ideas because I don't punish the failed ones.
I put myself in situations beyond my comfort zone, because comfort means I have stopped improving.
My risk appetite matches what growth actually requires.
