BACKABLE: The Surprising Truth Behind What Makes People Take a Chance on You

Detroit Economic Club's Podcast

What is that “it-factor” which helps people stand out, think creatively, build confidence, reduce crippling anxiety, and convey their ideas effectively?

In his latest book Backable, Harvard instructor and author Suneel Gupta reveals the long-held secrets from executives at iconic companies, breakthrough artists, military leaders and venture capitalists, and curates them into steps that anyone can follow when a backable moment presents itself--whether that be a pitch, an interview, a presentation, or an audition.

Attendees will learn:

• What it means to be backable
• What to do when a backable moment presents itself
• Advice for standing out in a competitive job interview
• The 4C’s of Your Circle - and who should be in it
• What is the “Game of Now” and the three words that hold us back

The key to success is not talent, connections, or ideas, but the ability to persuade people to take a chance on your potential. Ask yourself: When was your backable moment? Who took a chance on you?
