Thinking Outside The Odds

Book authored by Vedika Dayal, UC Berkeley’23

We are often told to "think outside the box" when solving problems. But the reality is that the constraints around innovation are more real than cardboard. From inaccessible resources to a lack of self-esteem, they stack the odds against us. We are told that success lies in overcoming these disadvantages. But what if the key to innovation is harnessing them instead?

Vedika Dayal set out to find answers. She graduated from the Global Management Program at Berkeley Haas and is the author of “Think Outside The Odds.” In her book, Vedika weaves together psychological insights, entrepreneurship case studies, and thirteen captivating stories of innovators to show how you can harness the same power of intentionality.
