In this episode, I’m joined once again by Dr Gavriel "Gav" Schneider — CEO, author, strategic risk expert, and one of Australia’s foremost thinkers on how to navigate uncertainty and unlock human potential. We dive deep into his latest book, 'Presilience: How to Navigate Risk, Embrace Opportunity and Build Resilience', exploring why most organisations still view risk too narrowly, and how reframing it as a strategic enabler can lift both performance and resilience. We talk about the post-COVID productivity slump, the challenge of leading five generations in the workforce, and why Australia’s risk-averse culture is holding back innovation. Gav shares the core skills every leader needs to thrive in a world of low certainty and limited control, and how his Presilience framework has transformed not only his own $45M business but also the outcomes of clients across sectors. This conversation is packed with practical insights, from rethinking work-from-home policies based on human behaviour, to leading through disruption without burning out, to positioning your organisation for the opportunities emerging from generative AI. If you’re a leader, board member, or aspiring high performer, this is essential listening.
