An expert facilitator and engaging instructor, for over 30 years Bill has led initiatives across a range of companies, countries, and cultures. Known as a passionate expert on leading for resilience and adaptability, Bill offers practical principles, tools, and techniques for all to grow and flourish through the nonstop adversity and uncertainty that’s so much a part of our world today.

In this episode, Bill answers the following questions:
- What it means to be resilient? What does it mean to have resilience?
- What it means to have adaptability?
- What makes a person resilient and adaptable?
- What builds resilience? What builds adaptability?
- How do we build resilience and adaptability in others?

I am grateful whenever I get to hear Bill share his experiences in both learning and teaching others about resilience and adaptability. I love how he breaks down that while resilience does help with dealing with stress and adversity, it is resilience and adaptability that help us bounce forward and becoming stronger because we went through that challenge. Bill shared an important perspective from Kelly McGonigal that I think is worth remembering, a well-lived life is not a stress-free life.
