In an ever-changing world, the ability to adapt and bounce back from setbacks—known as career resilience—is more valuable than ever. Whether you're navigating layoffs, transitioning industries, or simply dealing with workplace challenges, resilience is the key to maintaining momentum and finding new opportunities.
