Flexibility

Flexibility is understood as adaptivity, i.e. the ability to adapt and reshape according to the challenges that arise.

Flexible people:

• can question themselves and change their world view;
• manage to use external events to reformulate the way they see themselves and the world;
• develop relative paradigms, i.e. not based on absolute terms, compared to their individual perception of reality;
• have an experimental approach and know how to change a plan in action when they discover issues that they had not taken into account;
• can handle ambiguity because they are aware that there is more than one situation.
