Leaders need all the help they can get when navigating complex challenges and change; especially as it relates to the clarity and courage it takes to make strategic decisions that support individual, team and organizational thrivability.

In our work with leaders and organizations, we have found significant inspiration and courage for personal and organizational change through a combination of Resilience and Regenerative principles and practices. 

Resilience brings a broad framework of research and experience about mindsets and behaviors that people use to adapt and rebound from adversity, and to emerge stronger and more resourceful in difficult or challenging life experiences. Resilience guides leaders with a framework that helps them maintain the energy and stamina for long term change.

Simply said, Resilience:

• identifies a capacity to recover from difficulties = mental toughness.
• demonstrates the ability to spring back into shape = mental elasticity.
• is focused on HOW you rebound (although it doesn’t mean you will never stumble).

Regeneration brings a biological perspective on what living systems do to emerge, evolve and thrive over time. Regeneration provides leaders with a framework for making policy, governance, and strategic decisions backed by a billion years of evolutionary wisdom (a.k.a. living systems principles).

Simply said, Regeneration:

• brings fresh insight to leaders, teams and organizations.
• restores hope and overcomes exhaustion.
• supports a path for social innovation and behavior change.

Both Resilience and Regeneration bring principles and practices that can be used to refresh and renew sustainability, ESG, Climate, policy, and impact initiatives.
