Book description
The term 'resilience' is often used in a business context, but also in the context of personal development, community development or indeed climate change. Other words used are adaptability and flexibility, the ability to adjust to changing circumstances. In this ebook, Ron Immink takes you through a journey of a number of books and concepts, framing the journey in four key trends: Exponential, Climate change, Circular and Social innovation and finishing with a tool he developed to help you filter and make sense of all the changes that are coming our way. This book is a mini version of Ron's Bookbuzz briefings. It opens with a 'book flower', showing the images of the books that are covered. It is the map of the book. All these books are then referenced in the opening chapter and written about in separate chapters, so you can skip to the titles that interest you. The purpose of RESILIENCE and others in the series is to make you think, wonder and reflect. Maybe get a new idea or a new way forward. At a minimum, it will make you more aware of what is out there.
