Few library employees have extensive experience as entrepreneurs,
experimenters, or risk-takers. And when library resources are limited,
it's natural for us to be cautious. Nevertheless, the ability to size up
- and take - a calculated risk can be the key to successful change and
innovation. In this lively, interactive session, we will explore how to 

*	Choose the most promising innovations in the first place, 
*	Decide when a risk is justified and when it isn't; 
*	Articulate risks and benefits for effective communication, 
*	Use existing library assets as a safety net, 
*	Avoid common innovation pitfalls, and 
*	Recover from missteps when - not if! - they happen. 

Come learn how you can keep customer satisfaction up and your own blood
pressure down by improving your innovation and risk-taking skills.
