If we truly want to flourish in today’s world, we need to be able to adapt. We’ve all heard of IQ and EQ, but did you know that there’s a new quotient called AQ? It stands for Adaptability Quotient, and it’s a social science metric that measures the ability to adapt and thrive in an environment of continual and accelerating change.
Society is undergoing an exponential rate of change, and to keep up, we need to be able to adapt and increase our capacity for change. The good news is that you can learn to become more adaptable.
To learn more about the Adaptability Quotient and what we can do to increase our AQ, I had a conversation with Nancy Watt, a “pracademic” who applies evidence-based research with experiential learning using the tools and techniques of improvisational theatre, humour research, and laughter.
Nancy is an international speaker, facilitator, and improviser. Along with her background in positive psychology and corporate training, she is also from Second City’s Improv Conservatory and Sketch Writing Programs in Toronto and Chicago and is an Applied Improv Practitioner.
