Love the "what if.." and being open to new ideas. I've had to revamp my web design business so that I can talk to my clients more via Skype and Zoom instead of having face to face meetings. Thanks for sharing, I found this very informative. Keep up the great work!
I've always thought of that as being flexible. Like a tree bend with the wind so you don't break. Now you've got me pondering the difference. Awesome topic.
I used to be the LEAST adaptable person I ever knew :) Thankfully over time I learned that it was pretty much either adapt or be 100% miserable. These are important tips!
I used to be the one person that wasn’t able to adapt until I realized that it’s because I hated change. I was in a comfortable space and adaptability meant I had to change and give up my safe and comfortable space. Thank Goodness I had a great mentor who showed me that change is good and that adaptability ushers in growth.
That stat at the beginning - that is absolutely insane!! Thanks for sharing - totally agree about adaptability! I'm also trained as an organisational psychologist!!
Great points Carol. I totally agree that adaptability at work is one of the top soft skills right now. As the market keeps getting disrupted, it's so important for everyone to build up that adaptability muscle.
Hey Carol! This was very good and insightful!!! Never thought about adaptability and how importante that is. I think I have always dealt well with it. But thanks so much for sharing. Learned a lot
I had not considered AQ as a separate intelligence before. Thank you for opening my eyes to that. It has transformed my thinking about addressing challenges like learning new technology as I grow as a RU-vidr!
I am usually adaptable unless I feel pressured by it. Working from home right now has pushed me to adapt a schedule that is realistic yet "hopefilled".
I definitely resonated with your point on our ability to listen and having an open mind to understand other team members point of view, so important. I find that the ones that listen more than trying to always be right and share their opinion are more effective in their execution. Really great tips Carol!
Loving your videos - thank you for inspiring me to get out of my own head space and to know I can still be valuable by doing something to help others, keep myself active and proactive in this our crazy world,
