Abstrakt: The article focuses on the concept of "deliberate calm" as a strategy to combat burnout and enhance adaptability in the workplace. It highlights the challenges workers face, including stress and cognitive overload, which hinder their ability to learn and innovate in unfamiliar situations. The authors emphasize that while resilience is important, adaptability—defined as the ability to turn challenges into opportunities—is crucial for individual performance and well-being. They note that despite employers recognizing the importance of adaptability, few provide the necessary training to develop this skill, suggesting that deliberate calm can help transform adversity into positive outcomes.
