The founder's talk

Fortune
is not luck.

Sixty to seventy-five minutes on how you decide when the market falls. The room does not listen: it decides, negotiates and throws the die.

Delivered by David May Anaya. Booked on its own or together with the evening.

What happens in the room

Nobody leaves with notes.
They leave with a decision made.

01

Decisions against the clock

Real money questions, thirty seconds each. There is no time to ask anyone, which is exactly the point.

02

Negotiation in pairs

Two people, one table, different rules on each side. What one knows, the other does not. That is how it works outside.

03

The die goes down

Four faces out of six in your favour. The room finds out live that half the outcome was never theirs, and that the other half was.

What they take away

Nobody sits and listens. They play.

  • Why one word names both luck and wealth, and what rides on that confusion.
  • The rules the outside world obeys with a discipline that is frankly unnerving.
  • How to tell a bad run from a bad decision, which are not the same and are not paid for the same way.
  • Three questions for Monday morning, before opening the inbox.
