Summary

Discover how to transform stress and other unwanted states into resilience, clarity, and improved wellbeing with this insightful new book

Resilience By Design: How to Survive and Thrive in a Complex and Turbulent World delivers the world’s most detailed and research-backed how-to manual to integrate advances from neuroscience and complexity theory with real world expertise, providing practical techniques that you'll want to use every day. Alongside well explained scientific theory, each chapter contains dramatic, real-life stories of people from frontline services, elite sports, and everyday survivors who learned to thrive in high pressure, demanding, and often deadly situations.

You'll discover how resilience isn’t just the ability to tough it out; it's dependent upon an interconnected set of skills, techniques, creative processes, and new understandings of how we think, act, and interact with our environments and each other.

If you or someone you care about experiences unwanted stress, anxiety, decision fatigue, overwhelm, or burnout, by applying the step-by-step techniques in this book, you'll learn to develop resilience, clarity, improved energy, wellbeing, and overall performance.

You'll also learn:

  • There's no such thing as an inherently stressful situation, workplace, or event.
  • How to appreciate and benefit from the hidden information in your unconscious signals and intuitions
  • How to adapt your decision making to meet the challenges of uncertainty, from the complicated and complex, to the outright chaotic
  • When to define your limits and 'line in the sand' so that you never expose yourself to unmanageable risk or potential burnout
  • What is it to, 'Know Thyself', through techniques that change perspective and bring clarity even in uncertain, turbulent times
  • Techniques that can be easily taught to people you care about
  • Lifelong resilience and being at your best is available to each of us, no matter what life throws at you.

Resilience By Design was derived from the experiences of hundreds of people on the frontline of emergency services, defense, Olympic level sports, business, art, science, and many other areas of expertise—from firefighters and paramedics to social workers and athletes. This book is written for students and teachers, parents and children, caregivers and patients, athletes and coaches, managers and employees, entrepreneurs, and fortune 500 CEOs, and anyone who wishes to know how to survive and thrive in an ever more complex and turbulent world.
