Description: Why settle for "getting to yes" when you can "play to win"? Risk is everywhere and every decision you make is a gamble. To gain the advantage, you need to understand the odds and your opposition and accurately assess tolerance for legal and financial risk — your own, your company’s, and your competitor’s. This multi-disciplinary and interactive presentation will bring together the latest in decision theory, finance and psychology, using participatory examples from poker, blackjack and the stock market. The program will demonstrate how the mathematical and psychological principles that underlie gaming also apply to successful legal decision-making, whether negotiating a deal, litigating a tough case, or making a financial decision.
