How to Be Anti-Fragile

What is Antifragility?Antifragility, a concept introduced by Nassim Taleb, is elegantly straightforward: it refers to the exact opposite of fragility. While fragile systems break under stress, antifragile systems grow stronger when exposed to volatility, uncertainty, and chaos. In essence, if you can thrive and improve in the face of disorder, you embody antifragility.This concept has found relevance across numerous industries. In software development, Google's director of engineering, Ray Kurzweil, was among the first to adapt it, coining the term "antifragile programming." This approach encourages embracing uncertainty by designing systems that not only withstand change but also leverage it to improve, eliminating the element of surprise.Beyond software, antifragility has been applied to diverse fields, including marketing, finance, architecture, engineering, healthcare policy, governance, genetics, and biology. It has become a powerful lens through which to view resilience and adaptability in complex systems.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/schmidt-list-entrepreneurial-insights--2664825/support.
