"Discover how to build resilience that truly supports you and your growth, not just survival." Victoria and I reflect on what we celebrate in leadership. The drive, the composure, the ability to read a room - these are often seen as peak leadership skills. But for many, these aren’t just skills. They’re survival strategies, honed long before any boardroom. We delve into the definition and application of healthy resilience: it involves processing, self-reflection, and intentional strategy, not just “plowing past” adversity. Many leaders, unknowingly practice an “unhealthy” version, equating resilience with stoicism. Yet, this often leads to burnout and a lack of genuine connection within teams. Healthy resilience to remain as human and authentic as possible in the way we show up as leaders has this been more relevant and important than today in the age of AI and a potential to become more and more transactional and isolated. We need to build more resilience at both human and systems level as people drive everything; given that perception is reality, changes must be made to show up differently and display emotion.
