How can leaders build teams that don’t just survive uncertainty, but thrive in it? Data shows that robustness and resilience aren’t enough; leaders need to inoculate their teams from disruption by creating antifragile processes.

Using insights from Upwork’s Work Innovator research and real-world examples, we break down the key traits of antifragile teams and provide actionable steps for leaders. If you’re looking to future-proof your organization, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in and learn how embracing challenges can become your greatest advantage.
