Summary

Throughout my professional life I've had to develop-and made great use of-resilience and adaptability. There's no blueprint for how to build the greenhouses I was constructing, and no workplace training can predict what the next unhoused person to step through my hotel's revolving door will demand of me. Despite this, I have never felt out of my depth, and can confidently face any unexpected development with a level head.
