Big Bets: How Large-Scale Change Really Happens
Book • 2023
In 'Big Bets: How Large-Scale Change Really Happens,' Rajiv Shah shares his insights on creating transformational change.
The book is part career memoir and part inspirational playbook, detailing Shah's journey from his work at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to his leadership at the Rockefeller Foundation.
Shah argues that a 'big bets' philosophy, which involves seeking to solve problems rather than making incremental improvements, can attract unlikely partners and achieve significant change.
The book includes vivid behind-the-scenes stories, conversations with influential figures, and Shah's personal growth as an Indian-American from an immigrant family.
