🔧 Ever faced a "make it work" moment at work? 👇🏾Share your stories in the comments below! I would love to hear them! 🎬 This shot perfectly embodies "Behind-the-Scenes Efficiency in Action!" Last week at Booking.com HQ in Amsterdam, my schedule was packed with a VIP Dinner and a sudden interview right before. In the race against time, the cameraman swiftly took charge, holding the light to make the shot work without waiting for the rest of the team! These situations emphasize the importance of staying in the moment: ⏰ Time Precision ➔ Every second counts 🚫 Zero Margin for Error ➔ No room for second takes 🔄 Adaptability Mastery ➔ Key to navigating unexpected challenges Just focusing on giving your best without dwelling on "what ifs" makes a significant difference! Big thanks to Friederike Franzen for ensuring I was back in time! Appreciate you making it seamless for me! #Creativity #Productivity #GettingThingsDone #Success #BehindTheScenes
Every road warrior faces a challenge at some point (or many points). Wrong sized rental car for an entourage or an overbooked hotel sending you down the street or a cancelled flight changing the meeting schedule…those are the quick thoughts. Adapt and roll. Let’s go!
Adaptability, flexibility and fine-tune as you go. If you acknowledge that you cannot plan everything, you stress less during sudden turns of events :).
In military circles the mantra “ improvise, adapt and overcome” is widely used and I think is apropos here 😊
Sometimes you have to work with what you have. Love the adaptability, Ryan Patel.
I love the shoes! 😎 I think we all have a cameraperson (colleagues, family, loved ones) to thank in our lives. I was talking to a colleague on having a "two feet in" approach on work, especially through the challenges, opportunities and changes in one's career. Thanks again for the chat this week. 😊
Pivot, adaptability, flexibility and make it happen no matter what!
Everyday! Not one day is the same as the other in our business 😊. It helps to plan ahead, so you can react and adapt when things change.
I love your thoughtful ‘truths’ Ryan Patel … you are such a gem!
Thanks Ryan, looking forward to sharing the results!

1yBeen there, done that, with an iPhone and a lapel mike! 😅 We have to appear calm and collected so that you’ll be reassured, but boy, was there some level of hidden stress…
