RESILIENT PEOPLE

Possible Attributes of Resilient People: (TOM PETERS / NASEEM NICHOLAS TALEB - THE BLACK SWAN) (here)

Inner calm (Buddhist-like?); think Tiger Woods

High self-knowledge ("comfortable in own skin")

Breadth of experience - drove a cab, worked construction, ran Alaska tours ... not just a variety of assignments in a traditional career progression.

Sense of, "Ah, my moment" (e.g., Giuliani)

Lover of modestly controlled chaos (bored amidst calm-e.g., FDR)

Reach out effortlessly to a wide variety of people (in general and on the fly)

Bizarrely energetic

Known for integrity, in the sense of "straight shooter"

Hires resilient people per se in key positions! (All senior leadership roles?

Sense of humor

Empathy ("I feel your pain")

"Cruelty" (Must make tough decisions instantaneously, without looking back; not "confident," but overwhelming sense of urgency to press ahead)

Decisive, but not rigid

Strong individual, equally strong team player

Understands the chain of command - and evades it as necessary

Comfortable being challenged by thinkers, but a strong "doer" bias overall

A person of Hope (religious or "religious-like"?)

Not necessarily: ex-college quarterback with a history of comebacks (Why: All within the rules, within the context of that which has been practiced) - Innovator and ability to redefine oneself again and again

Better(??): Ocean sailboat racer; ER doc; public health doc; astronaut; combat experience; hostage negotiator; survived in hopeless circumstances through guile and grit; seeks "independent duty"

Tests: Have the lights "unexpectedly" go out during an employment interview, followed by fire alarm, etc; focus on resilience per se in reference checks

Bizarrely true !!!!!!!  -- resonates exactly what I think. It feels as if someone just put words to every inch in which I believed in.  I love and believe in each word... I feel as if this is the truth that I have been looking for to be stated and has now been revealed :)

Trading, guns and money

A true insight in what goes in traders minds

and in what era what was going on and how Greenspan's playing tennis was linked with Bourses and derivatives :)
