In a rapidly transforming world, aim to be a “Master of Change” rather than a “victim of change.” As the saying goes, “Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, but learning to dance in the rain.” This means developing both agility and cognitive flexibility—the ability to learn and adapt strategies when needed.
