What is the Mid-Market Organizational Resilience course about?

Mid-market organizations are at an inflection point, growing fast but lacking the infrastructure to sustain innovation under pressure. Leaders want resilience that enables, not inhibits, but struggle to move beyond siloed risk checklists or crisis-driven fixes. Without a coherent model, teams default to over-preparation or under-response, both of which erode trust and momentum.
