Episode 21: Organizational resilience: 90% of companies lack the core capabilities

The world is more unpredictable than ever, yet 90% of organizations admit they lack the core capabilities needed for resilience. Leaders recognize the risks—technological disruption, regulatory shifts, economic instability—but most still focus on short-term damage control rather than long-term adaptability.

In this episode of Culture by Neurodesign, Dr Lisa Colledge explores why most resilience strategies fall short and how organizations can shift from reactive survival to proactive leadership and thriving when faced with disruptors. She discusses:

• The top disruptors keeping leaders awake at night.
• How psychological safety, teamwork, and cognitive inclusion create long-term resilience.
• The Private Sector Resilience Framework designed by the World Economic Forum and McKinsey.
• The critical leadership shift from control to adaptability.
• How cognitive diversity and cognitive inclusion fuel both innovation and resilience.

I discuss action steps in the podcast, and introduce a free resource that will help you to get started with cognitive inclusion as the most effective approach to integrating a fresilience strategy into your organization. Neuro-Inspired: 12 Steps to a Future-Proof Workplace Culture is a structured, manageable, monthly step-by-step guide to experimenting with cognitive inclusion in your team. Learn more by:
