Resiliency Theory
Have you ever wondered if there is a resiliency quotient? Are resiliency and values directly correlated and do they impact each other? In the wake of challenge and adversity, does resiliency give us the strength to show up as our best self? How do we revisit our values and check-in with them? Join me as I meet with different friends, peers and leaders and we discuss their values, resiliency, and leadership. Over the course of many conversations, I hope to answer my burning question of whether there is a set of values that make one person more resilient than another and can they be taught.
Resiliency Theory
Episode 1: Welcome Karen Bryant
In this episode, I explore with my friend Karen Bryant (KB) the former CEO of Atavus Sports and former President and CEO of the Seattle Storm the topics of values, resiliency and leadership. Karen defines her five values as integrity, ambition and drive, optimism, reliability, and adaptability. We had a very provocative conversation discussing whether values and resiliency correlate, the concept of a values audit, if resiliency can be taught, and questioning if there is a resiliency quotient. She shared her perspectives on how resiliency is a muscle and how it strengthens over time through adversity. In considering a time when she was resilient and the concept of a resiliency quotient, the word perseverance kept coming to mind for Karen.
