Title: On chance and intelligence : how much of our success can we chalk up to innate ability, and how much to random luck? / Carlos FuentesAuthor: Fuentes, Carlos ‌
Notes: Sumario: Little attention is given to the role that chance plays in business and personal lives. Generally, those who are successful ascribe their accomplishments to personal qualities whereas those who fail see external, uncontrollable factors as the forces that prevented them from achieving their goals. These views are oversimplifications, often misleading. It is certainly not true that discipline, perseverance, planning, intelligence, and talent guarantee triumphs, although they make them more likely. Conversely, individuals who lack these traits sometimes are successful. This is a fact of life borne by observation.Related records: En: Contingencies : American Academy of Actuaries. - Washington : American Academy of Actuaries, 2019-. - 02/11/2020 November-December 2020 , p. 14-21Materia / lugar / evento: Cálculo actuarial ‌Planes estrátegicos ‌Inteligencia ‌Constancia ‌Other categories: 6
