Inside-Out

Inside-Out

Dr Sven Hansen is the founder of The Resilience Institute International which functions as Springfox's global research partner. His novel Inside-Out invites the reader to look deeply into who they are and how they think. It explains how the practice of resilience can empower them to become calm, energised, engaged, focused and in-flow both personally and within business teams and organisations as a whole.

"Hansen's assertions are all backed by research on the various topics covered such as sleep, nutrition, exercise, human physiology and more. It is a manual for self-care in a fast-paced, demanding world; one that does not constrain, and instead promotes active participation. Well worth the read." – Robert S Read
