What it is
The ability to recover functional capacity after setbacks, failures, or high-stress periods — without prolonged performance degradation. Resilient workers absorb adversity without becoming fragile or avoidant.
Career impact
Every meaningful career involves failures — lost deals, rejected proposals, difficult feedback, role transitions that don't go as planned. Resilience determines how quickly someone returns to productive output after these events. In high-stakes roles with frequent failure (sales, research, medicine, entrepreneurship), it's a structural requirement.
