<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nFor example, in 2017, Uber was heavily criticized for its corporate culture, which was described as aggressive and unrestrained. This came to light following a blog post by a former employee, Susan Fowler, who detailed a workplace culture that enabled sexual harassment and gender discrimination. The fallout led to an internal investigation, and the resignation of several high-ranking executives, including CEO Travis Kalanick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The #MeToo movement has had a significant impact on how businesses handle cases of harassment and misconduct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This type of resilience must be very well developed so that high horizons of authority do not lead to low horizons of respect and self-control at all levels of corporate relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When we are in the spotlight, other opportunities may arise for very tempting positions, but without our own deep analysis, we are buying a very attractive gift at the cost of a solid future. The vision of risk can be hindered by temporary high-altitude fog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A high-profile example in Europe of an executive who was hired from another company and later lost his job is Jean-Marc Janaillac, who was the CEO of Air France-KLM. Before joining Air France-KLM, Janaillac was the CEO of Transdev, a French international public transport company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Janaillac took the helm at Air France-KLM in 2016, hoping to resolve labor disputes that had plagued the airline for years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2018, he proposed a pay deal to Air France staff, which was rejected by employees after a consultation deemed as a “vote of confidence.” Following the rejection, Janaillac announced his resignation in May 2018, saying that the strikes had left Air France in a financially precarious situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Overconfidence can blind our discernment about which battles are worth fighting, when to advance, when to maintain the status quo of a situation, or even when to back down. Great generals in history have had heavy losses due to overconfidence in their own forces, underestimating the forces of their enemies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the time of caravels, the calm could be as deadly as a storm. An important type of resilience is the one we need to develop against situations of total accommodation, when everything seems to be going very well, when prolonged routine of a function or position is present, combined with a lack of personal or business future perspective. A resilient spirit not only creates resistance in difficulties but restlessness when everything is too calm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We thus return to our beginning. While for a long time in our careers we are preparing with resilience for external factors, when reaching high positions, the need for resilience to internal factors, of our own being, is reinforced. This may be the most difficult type of resilience to be created.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
