Over the course of this module, you’ll strengthen your adaptability, an EI competency that enables us to effectively navigate and respond to change, balance competing demands, and innovate for the future. In a world that is volatile, uncertain, and often unpredictable, strength in this competency will be key as you move through your life and career. The adaptability module will give you the opportunity to examine how you currently respond to disruptive change and develop a mindset that will enable you to have greater satisfaction with your life and success in your career.

Lesson 1: Settle your mind.

Lesson 2: Embrace uncertainty.

Lesson 3: Examine your beliefs.

Lesson 4: Find a positive perspective on change.

Lesson 5: Reflect on what you’ve learned.

For each competency you aim to develop during the Foundational Skills, we ask that you set an intention to get the most out of your experience. You can choose one of the intentions below, modify one to your liking, or write your own.

As I embark on developing adaptability, I want to…

• effectively navigate unexpected setbacks.
• achieve a better work-life balance.
• become more receptive to others’ new ideas.
• see change as a positive.

The intention you choose may be more open-ended (like the first two) or more specific (like the latter two). Once you set an intention, type it below. If you wish, you might also add your motivation for setting this intention and how working toward it would make a positive impact.
