The Concept

Transilience

“Transilience is the skill that enables us to intentionally transfer resources — skills, behaviours, meanings and energy — across our roles, making us stronger in every situation.”

We live within a paradigm that presents our roles as competing with one another: more roles = less time, as though we were a cake to be divided into slices.

But our identity does not work that way.

Research involving more than 70,000 people has shown that every transition — a separation, an illness, a new job, becoming a parent — can add resources to the map of our lives.

Our roles can help one another: when one faces a challenge, the others can lend it resources. This is the power of transilience.

“We are many things. When we begin to see them as parts of an integrated, synergistic system, our resources can travel in every direction across the different roles we play.”
