Become more flexible and adaptable
Summary:
Being flexible refers to bending your position, usually in the spirit of accommodation or compromise. Being adaptable is the willingness and ability to change yourself. Both are essential in framing how you respond to individuals with different perspectives than yours, and to an ever-changing business environment. The following quote from Charles Darwin serves as prophecy to individuals and organizations: “It is not the strongest of the species that survives, not the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.”
