Micro Resilience: the art of the bounce-back

Dear Courageous Leaders,

For this week’s Coffee Break –  you will find helpful tools and tips on how to bounce back after a mistake. Think about it as micro resilience. Here are some key points from the video:

• Setbacks are normal parts of any worthwhile endeavor. Bouncing back is what separates the winners from the rest.
