What is Nassim Nicholas Taleb's Anti-fragile? And How does it apply to Project Management?

[@Onlinepmcourses]

Some things break. Others benefit from the same kinds of shocks. Those are 'anti-fragile'. It's a term coined by Nicholas Nassim Taleb in his book of the same name (geni.us/7JvX). I describe what I understand by the term and how it applies to Project Management.

Such great advice. Well said, and agreed. We need to develop anti-fragility in various aspects of our lives. Using stress to become stronger is a choice. Things will go wrong, remain nimble and creative. Having contingencies in place ahead of time saves time & resources in the long run. You are spot on, having a “plan B & C” for your “plan B” keeps things on track just as “ 2 is 1 and 1 is none” is always beneficial because at some point, to some extent, things will go sideways. Your ability to adapt & carry makes all the difference.

Thank you, Melissa. An insightful addition to my own thoughts. The ability to carry on is resilience. But, when we adapt and get better, that's anti-fragility.
