Kick back. Put your feet up. What’s the rush?
In this funny and utterly practical new book from Frank Partnoy, the author of F.I.A.S.C.O. argues that with all decisions, whether short term or longer, more important strategic gains, there is nothing to be gained by taking an early decision.

Sage advice, surely. Now, time for a cuppa… and maybe even a siesta.
