Heidi Dening is no stranger to adversity. From a debilitating illness in her youth to harrowing experiences like a gunpoint kidnapping and narrowly escaping a petrol bomb attack, she has faced challenges that would test the resilience of even the most seasoned leader. Yet, it is these very experiences that have shaped Heidi into the resilient and insightful leadership expert she is today.

Resilience, as Heidi defines it, is not about simply bouncing back, but about the ability to "bounce forward" - to extract valuable insights from challenges and apply them to become better prepared for the next obstacle. This forward-looking mindset is crucial in today's fast-paced, volatile business landscape, where leaders are constantly navigating change, uncertainty, and high-pressure situations.

Leaders are increasingly expected to be vulnerable and authentic, sharing their struggles and emotions openly. Yet, this can sometimes be perceived as a lack of resilience. Heidi's advice is to embrace all three elements of this "resilience triad", she share what these are in this conversation. 

This is an episode filled with hard-won wisdom and actionable advice.
