Adaptive Self-Leadership through Minding the Positive
In today’s constantly changing and uncertain environment, leaders face a great challenge in taking the right decisions, as well as doing the right moves. Apart from traditional leadership, one is compelled to adapt with what’s in the environment and keep up with the changes -sometimes follow the change, sometimes make the change, and sometimes be the change! To achieve one’s goals, especially in these unprecedented times, one needs to prepare and empower herself and her team with the magical skills of resilience, adaptiveness, agility, and positivity.
