Dr. De takes you on a trip through his insights that he’s learned about being a resilient supervisor from many people over 3 years.

There are many good points throughout the book, but the key to me is that in order to be a resilient supervisor, you must be in tune with whoever you’re supervising, must give them the tools to do the job themself,it’s take care of yourself, and must act instead of putting things off.

In sum, one must have a growth mindset and bring out the best in others to fulfill your purpose.

I highly recommend this book,
