Score lower than expected? Here are some tips to increase your overall agility:

  • Stay current on the knowledge of your business, the environment you are operating within, and the competitive workplace landscape.
  • Understand, and put into practice, inspirational leadership and change management.
  • Increase self-awareness and understand your own capabilities and emotions and how they impact others.
  • Maintain objectivity and a clear head in times of chaos.
  • Pay attention to signals in the marketplace to stay ahead of rapid change.
  • Keep moving and commit to living a healthy and active lifestyle.
  • Practice mindfulness and be aware of signs of stress that may be impacting your health.
  • Can’t find the time to get into an exercise routine? Set aside just 15 minutes a day to get into an active routine, workout (even a daily walk) with a friend or partner, participate in an organized class, or workout with a personal trainer or exercise physiologist. Mix it up, not only for the health of your muscles, but to prevent boredom.
