"""Kayes has been a long-time, articulate student of experiential learning and of dramatic instances when such learning falls short. Those strengths are evident again in this volume... The primary takeaway from this book is that if you learn from your experience, you'll be more resilient. That's an important message, as we tend to overestimate how often we learn and how skilled we are at doing it. And it's an important message that experience, both personal and vicarious, affects how well we adapt."" --Administrative Science Quarterly"
