Just Enough Anxiety: The Accelerant for Success

We're told that anxiety is bad. We work hard to "de-stress," "stay sane," and ideally eliminate anxiety from our lives altogether. But how many of us have ever achieved this? Trying -- in vain--to rid ourselves of anxiety actually causes more anxiety! Dr. Bob Rosen believes we are missing the point entirely. We're wasting time and energy fighting an enemy that should be our secret weapon. Instead of something to avoid, anxiety is an untapped source of energy and the hidden driver of business success. We just need the harness the right amount of anxiety that can propel us forward instead of tying us in knots.

In this talk, Dr. Rosen offers practical guidance using cutting-edge psychology with real-world stories of success from some of the world's best companies. You'll learn:

  • How to change the way you think about anxiety so you can live comfortably in an uncertain world
  • How to strike a balance between confidence, optimism, and compassion on the one hand and humility, realism, and impatience on the other.
  • How to put anxiety to work for you to motivate your organization to be more innovative, profitable and sustainable.
