Unexpected Events

Updated: Apr 2, 2021

It’s April Fools’ Day—when the unexpected is, well, expected and easy to handle. When faced with unexpected events, you have a choice:


· blame someone or something else;

· obsess about what might have been;

· recover and focus on the opportunity.


What would you choose?


If you were a resilient leader, you would choose to bounce back quickly. You would turn a difficult event into an advantage and setbacks into learning opportunities.


I help my clients build their leadership skills to be more resilient. If you would like to be more resilient and more adaptive, let's start a conversation.


P.S. If your curious about how resilient you are, take this short HBR quiz.) (FYI, I will link to: https://hbr.org/2015/01/assessment-how-resilient-are-you)
