514: How to build long-term resilience (with Adam Markel)

Welcome to an episode with bestselling author, keynote speaker, workplace expert, and resilience researcher, Adam Markel. Get Adam's Book here: https://amzn.to/3MhODjI

In this episode, Adam speaks about how he reinvented his career path through valuable lessons and eye-opening life events. He shares his experience as a Jones Beach lifeguard in New York. As a first responder in a life-and-death environment, he learned the importance of cultivating a high-performance capacity and impeccable teamwork. He learned to never let anyone go under the water, not to quit, and to keep going no matter what the conditions were. Years later, after experiencing a panic attack due to stress and exhaustion, he was reminded of another important lesson that he learned at the beach: the importance of taking intermittent breaks. Rest, recover, and recuperate, or you cannot perform well.

Lots of people think of resilience as getting up after taking a blow, moving forward after getting knocked down, and bouncing back from setbacks. Resilience is more than that. As Adam mentioned in this episode, "Resilience is not about how we bounce back. It's actually about how we bounce forward. It's not about how we endure life's challenges, adversities, and uncertainties. But actually how it is that we leverage that uncertainty for our growth."

Adam is the author of the #1 Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Los Angeles Times, and Publisher's Weekly bestseller, Pivot: The Art & Science of Reinventing Your Career and Life. A leading international keynote speaker, he has reached tens of thousands worldwide with his message of resilience as the competitive edge in today's complex markets. An attorney, entrepreneur, and transformational trainer, Adam is a sought-after business culture catalyst who inspires, empowers, and guides organizations and individuals to create sustainable, high-performance strategies.

Adam is also the CEO of More Love Media and host of The Change Proof podcast, where he shares his insights on pivoting and resilience in today's fast-paced market and interviews experts, innovators, and influencers in the areas of business and life.

Adam credits much of his success to the principles he learned during his eight years as a Jones Beach lifeguard in New York. He's found that the principles of this type of culture and leadership equally apply to any business that wants to build a competitive advantage to win.

After building a multi-million-dollar law firm, Adam pivoted his own career path to become CEO of one of the largest business and personal growth training companies in the world. Here he learned that motivation and inspiration alone are not enough to effectively utilize change. It's about providing leaders, teams, and audiences with effective takeaways to sustain them over time.

We recently had a coaching session with a client who could become a #McKinsey Principal in about 12 to 24 months. He is currently a McKinsey Associate Principal and has been a long-time client of FIRMSconsulting. He joined our #caseinterview coaching program when he was at Harvard completing an #MBA and we helped him join McKinsey as an associate. This is our 7th year of coaching him and he is a wonderful young man. In this podcast, we are going to summarize some critical advice we offered him, and other McKinsey Principal-level coaching clients, about moving from associate principal to becoming a McKinsey Principal and, thereafter, McKinsey Director.
