(2011).
Public and private decision makers should place due attention to the likelihood that high risk high reward options will fail.
The old saying goes, “no risk, no reward”. But what about initiatives that have a high risk factor and promise a high level of reward, such as large government projects like the NHS National Programme for IT? Adam Oliver argues that governments can often ‘anchor’ too heavily on projects that promise the earth, but might potentially cost it as well.
