Anyone got kids? If so I bet you lots of money that this word is familiar to you. In this world, I suspect that this one word above all is the prerequisite to succeed in this world. It used to be hard working - that's not good enough these days I'm afraid because hard work just doesn't cover what you need to survive and prosper today - sad but true.
Definition of resilience:
1. the capacity to withstand or to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness.
2 the ability of a substance or object to spring back into shape; elasticity.
You know who has this? Our CEO Robbie - in absolute bucket loads. He is an entrepreneur and yes he might have made a few mistakes along the way - sometimes you miss the detail when sprinting forwards and sometimes those around you can't keep up. BUT just look at the wa he has faced into the challenges of the likes of OCIM leaving the table after the meal was ordered leaving Robbie to pick up the bill - look at the lengths he has gone to in securing financing via CLNs to keep this company trading - spinning plates whilst showcasing the potential to other financiers and we are nearing the end of these advanced discussions - technical advisors landing on site in the next few weeks - for my money he embodies resilience and thats what I want from my CEO. That resilience is going to make me as an investor money - I can ask for nothing more.
Thanks Robbie!
I will get off my soap box now!
