knowledge to solve new problems

Why this soft skill is so important to company growth

What other soft skills are included in this ability

perspectives they already have

How successfully applying it can make someone a team leader,
intentionally or unintentionally

Why compensation and opportunity follow good adapters

An example of adapting to the new situation of tariffs on
products coming from China

A five-step process for applying knowledge to new situations

We can draw on others’ experiences to help us adapt to new
situations

How multiple sourcing can help us find better solutions

Drawing on relationships and those we trust
