Do you know the various types of Resilience that exist? Do you know what is Reactive Resilience and what is Proactive Resilience? How do Talent and Skill connect with Resilience that one has? What makes someone a professional and a first responder? Dr V Vijay, by virtue of being a heart surgeon and a Boeing pilot, and a trainer in both the fields, connects the dots beautifully to help us understand the practical aspects of Resilience, and how one needs to hone it from being reactive to proactive. Dr Venkatramana Vijay is as comfortable manoeuvring controls in a cockpit as he is wielding a scalpel in a surgery. Truly a frontline warrior in the face of the current pandemic, he has been flying emergency supplies all over the world in a Boeing 747, on the days he is not on his duty at the hospital saving lives as a cardiothoracic surgeon. A connoisseur of art and relics, he also collects antique cars and pre-war German motorcycles This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
