EP 71 - LESSONS OF TODAY'S RESILIENT AND ROBUST LEADER - GRAEME COWAN

How to be a Resilient Robust Leader by Managing your Mood.

In 2000, when Graeme was the Joint Managing Director of a division of AT Kearney, Graeme went through a 5 year episode of depression that his psychiatrist described as the worst he had ever treated. He emerged from this crisis with a different view about how we can build our resilience & mood to thrive through change. He is motivated by helping people adapt better to uncertainty and ambiguity by following daily rituals that increase our mood and performance. As we struggle with change fatigue, Graeme has valuable insights on how to be more resilient and robust in our lives. An important show for all business leaders to hear.
