Katie Foulkes had to harness resilience as a member of Australia's Olympic rowing team in 2004. After one of her teammates stopped rowing during the race, the outrage that erupted (the country's prime minister called the team "UnAustralian") rocked her to her core. Now a leadership coach who researches what builds resilience, she's found it's about more than just digging deep within yourself. It also requires casting wide outside yourself -- calling on the resources around you to help you survive your crucible and thrive beyond it.
