KEYNOTE 1
Resilience On Demand:
Why Bouncing Back Is Not a Winning Strategy
How we respond to the unexpected—from shifts in strategy, supply chain shortages and revenue shortfalls, to larger crises like recession, inflation, and global pandemics—defines our companies and ourselves. In times of uncertainty, the go-to rallying cry is often “be resilient, we can bounce back.” True resilience is not about “bouncing back” from hard things. It’s about developing on-demand skills and habits you can rely on in the face of stress, fear, or uncertainty. Creating that muscle memory takes work and preparation, but with it, anyone can take control of disruptions, stressors, and the unavoidable curveballs of day-to-day business, confidently transforming them into competitive advantages and unlocking new opportunities for innovation and growth.
This keynote is perfect for leaders who want to:
-
Lead through uncertainty or disruption
-
Create a culture of resilience
- Inspire teams and organizations
“Professional to work with behind the scenes, popular with the audience, and always on-point.”
“We were thrilled with Tissa’s keynote. She targeted it precisely to our audience in an accessible, compelling and engaging way.
