We discuss The Venture Mindset book and its application in both venture capital investing and traditional corporate settings. The text highlights the key principles of the Venture Mindset: embracing failure, making many small bets, prioritising the "jockey" over the "horse", accepting the inevitability of quitting, being patient, and promoting a culture of disagreement to avoid groupthink. The authors argue that these principles, often associated with venture capital, can be applied to corporate decision-making to achieve greater innovation and success. The text is supported with numerous real-life examples from companies such as 3M, Amazon, Airbnb, SpaceX, and Google.
