As a leader you can count on adversity to happen, usually at the worst possible time, that’s just life.

Whether it’s not getting buy-in for your big idea, not being able to get your peers to support your strategy, your 2IC leaving the job – just when you need them the most, someone else getting that promotion, or something in your personal life etcetc.

🔸How can you best prepare the week and the challenges ahead?

It’s your attitude (your thinking and behaviour) towards adversity, that will make all the difference in being effective as a leader.

➡️So how can you turn your adversity into an advantage?

1) Recognise it early, acknowledge it, and deal with it head on. Don’t dwell on it, it will not go away.

2) Use the adversity as a tool to accelerate. You have an opportunity- all though forced – to reflect, reset and optimise your situation, coming out stronger.

3) Use your creative problem solving to come up with a new perspective and approach.

In my book The Adversity Advantage you’ll find just the tool to help you with adversity: The Scenario Thinking Framework™.
