I had the opportunity to work with one of our favorite clients last week in Denver. Our team organized and led a two day experience for their top performing managers and sales force. It was a wonderful time.
Wonderful, that is, once I arrived.
I will spare you the brunt of my travel woes, but my day involved cancelled planes, standby, and an arrival just 3 hours after the event started. Slightly stressed (or just a bit more than slightly), I made it to the site with just 15 minutes to spare before I was to speak on Coaching Leadership.
It was at this event that I learned about the term “reboundability”. After my presentation, I was talking to a few of our clients and I shared about my day’s mishaps. This is when our friend and client Melanie Nygren shared this idea of reboundabilty.
She said that the ability to rebound after a challenge or mishap is what makes people who they are. Those who have the ability to rebound quickly and completely are the people who enjoy the most success in life. And those who get stuck and cannot move forward have more challenges.
I think Melanie is right. Our ability to rebound after we encounter all that life can throw at us will determine how we live in the days ahead.
So here is to moving forward and through the challenges ahead. To our Reboundability!
Thank you for the insight and great word Melanie,
