How To Truly Embrace Change And Build Long-Term Resilience written by John Jantsch read more at Duct Tape Marketing

Marketing Podcast with Adam Markel

In this episode of the Duct Tape Marketing Podcast, I interview Adam Markel. Adam is a best-selling author, keynote speaker, and resilience researcher. He inspires leaders to master the challenges of massive disruption in his upcoming book, Change Proof: Leveraging the Power of Uncertainty to Build Long-Term Resilience.

Key Takeaway:

When we think of resilience, we think of being able to “roll with the punches” and “bounce back” after uncertainty or change. But resiliency expert and bestselling author Adam Markel encourages you to aim higher. This kind of resilience—thriving versus surviving—is a skill you can cultivate, both personally and professionally. In this episode, we discuss how to truly, actually embrace change—to find the creative opportunity in uncertainty, as opposed to simply riding it out or reacting to it.

Questions I ask Adam Markel:

• [1:33] How would you define resilience?
• [2:36] Is resilience often confused with perseverance?
• [5:40] What does “Change Proof” mean in the title of your upcoming book?
• [8:23] Are you suggesting that stress needs to be a part of our daily practice in some way?
• [13:39] How do you embrace hope when you’ve been mentally drained from the last couple of years?
• [19:42] You talk a lot about how you can’t think big without having your basic needs met and one of the tools you talk about is gratitude for helping people – would you dive into more of what you mean by that?
• [24:16] Where can more people find out about your work and pick up a copy of your book?
