It is here that she places resilience, not as a binary construct, but something malleable, adaptable, flexible and (importantly) something that can be learned and developed. Powerful exercises bring the material to life, and allow for deeper insights. <i><b>Bounce Back</b></i> is a deeply compassionate and optimistic work.-- "Prof Andreas Liefooghe PhD, Director, Operation Centaur and Founder and CEO of Shrink Technologies"<br><br>How to fail fast and be resilient at work should be a staple on any entrepreneur's bookshelf.

In short, a thoroughly enjoyable, well researched and hugely practical book which is essential reading in these uncertain times.-- "Raul Aparici, Coach, Consultant Facilitator and Lead Faculty at The School of Life"<br><br>In this book, Susan brings together her considerable experience into a crucial yet fun and practical business book. Bouncing back from failure is what makes great entrepreneurs. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading it and doing some of the exercises with my colleagues.-- "Nathaniel Meyohas, Partner at Blandford Capital"<br><br>Often books like this fall between two types. They are either too to complex and psychological, or too quick fix and simplistic. Dr Susan Kahn has squared that circle by producing a book which mixes real depth and richness with accessible practical advice. There's no better book on resilience that you could read.-- "Derek Draper, CEO of CDP Leadership Consultants and author of Create Space"<br><br>Susan takes us on a journey of better understanding of how to harness our ability to bounce back. Resilience is a trait to be practiced and developed and reclaimed in or modern world.
