• To tackle change, both technical skills (knowledge/know-how) and transformational skills (can-do/knowing how to feel) are necessary.

  • Useful tools to develop greater self-awareness are: the request feedback from others, coaching courses and practices of mindfulness.
  • To handle a new context, an open mind that pushes to restructure one’s personal situation is needed.

  • Finally, resilience helps the person to face hard and frustrating times with strength, determination and positivity.
