Natalie Fratto’s Ted Talk offers valuable insights for executives striving to enhance their adaptability in today’s ever-changing business landscape. Fratto introduces three practical metrics: the “Curiosity Quotient” (CQ), emphasizing a willingness to learn and embrace change; “Options-Based Thinking,” focusing on decision-making agility by considering multiple solutions; and the “Failure Recovery Time” (FRT), measuring the speed of rebounding from setbacks.

A key element of successful executives is their ability to adapt, which they do by mastering these measures. Agile leaders are efficient at leading their firms through obstacles and surviving in a fast-developing environment.
