The Resilient Entrepreneur
What makes entrepreneurs more or less resilient to adversity? This case study brings together resilience, adaptation and crisis management evidence to offer invaluable lessons and interventions for entrepreneurs, managers and stakeholders.
How can entrepreneurs become mentally, emotionally, and practically prepared for a crisis? What strategies might help them endure and surface from a crisis?
Drawing on research and insights from 20 years spent studying entrepreneurs, Rachel Doern explores the experiences of entrepreneurs facing crises and presents practical strategies for building resilience in a turbulent world. Offering real-life examples and hands-on exercises, this book provides actionable steps to both strengthen resilience and avoid compromising it by adjusting our thinking, where we put our attention, our physical environment, and resources.
Essential reading for entrepreneurs, students and academics, business stakeholders, and mentors, The Resilient Entrepreneur provides a fresh perspective on navigating crises. Through personal stories of resilience, it offers inspiration and guidance for the resilience work we can all do.
