Dr. Maya Shankar, cognitive scientist and host of the podcast A Slight Change of Plans, shares ideas that can leaders understand, react, reframe, and better adapt to change in life or work. She offers evidence-based strategies for how leaders can build resilience in the face of personal, organizational, and technological upheaval while also finding paths to growth and learning. Shankar is author of the book The Other Side of Change: Who We Become When Life Makes Other Plans. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/hbr-on-leadership-6411274/episodes/build-your-resilience-in-the-face-of-tough-change/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/hbr-on-leadership-6411274/build-your-resilience-in-the-face-of-tough-change.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
