The pandemic of COVID-19 has disrupted all life globally. The coronavirus has revealed both the fragility as well as incredible resilience and adaptability of many systems around us. The most important one being the Human Operating System – our ability to make meaning, find motivation and manage our own emotions in the face of uncertainty, prolonged stress and constant change. All of which are hallmarks of resilience.

Resilience, contrary to popular belief, is not robustness, redundancy or even bouncing back. It does not always equate with the recovery of a system to its initial state. Oftentimes resilient systems have no baseline to return to, and so they reconfigure themselves continuously and fluidly to adapt to ever-changing circumstances, while continuing to fulfill their purpose as leaders, innovators and collaborators.

Companies and its employees today are at the forefront of change. Meaningful disruption is embedded in the DNA of every successful company. And so, surviving and thriving becomes a psychological game of mindsets, mental habits and resilience. The most skilful players are able to turn fear into fuel and uncertainty into business opportunities.

As such, with the world still being in a lock-down and slow-down mode an unprecedented opportunity presents itself to practice resilience and upgrade ourselves to better reflect who we are, what we want to become and where we are heading. Especially if you are part of an innovative business enterprise.
