New Leadership Learned Podcast: Building Resilience Across Generations
Resilience isn’t about bouncing back—it’s about moving forward with purpose. In this episode of Leadership Learned, we sit down with adventurer, author, and mental health advocate Alex Staniforth to explore the truth behind resilience: how it’s built, why it matters, and what it reveals about leadership in today’s world.
Drawing on powerful personal stories – including his attempts to summit Everest – Alex offers real-world insights for leaders navigating uncertainty, managing change, and building cultures where people can thrive. This isn’t a polished tale of glory—it’s a deeply human conversation about setbacks, self-awareness, and the strength that comes from struggle.
We also explore how Gen Z is reshaping leadership expectations, and why qualities like authenticity, wellbeing, and shared purpose aren’t just nice-to-haves—they’re essential.
