So what makes an organization resilient?

While there is not one answer, archetypes can help us understand the differences in how we define resiliency, our desired state versus our current disposition, and how we can work with the grain of culture as opposed to against it when building our resilience muscle.

This thought-provoking roundtable discussion on Resilience Archetypes brings together a diverse group of researchers, practitioners, and leaders to explore perspectives on the different patterns of behavior, attitudes, and beliefs that enable individuals, organizations, and ecosystems to thrive in the face of adversity.

Through a combination of presentations, panel discussion, and interactive dialogue, you will gain a deeper understanding of the different resilience archetypes and how they can be applied in practice. You will also have the opportunity to connect with other like-minded individuals and engage in meaningful conversations about building resilience in your organization.
