“The key goal in managing dynamic and unpredictable challenges is resilience – the ability to survive and thrive through unpredictable, changing, and potentially unfavorable events.” HBR has distilled 12 lessons for responding to the ever evolving COVID-19 pandemic and this article focuses on extracting and applying learnings. http://ow.ly/YNKK50yUxai
To cultivate resilience, establish and practice small rituals that you can practice daily to maintain perspective. For example, Michael Phelps, a world-renowned swimmer, used to listen to music prior to a race so he could get in the zone. Although others tried to distract him when he was practicing his ritual, he remained steadfast and focused. Ideas shared by women leaders around the world included rituals such as taking a one to two-minute break after 40 minutes of work; exercise; daily gratitude; and mindfulness.
