We often hear people say "adapt or die" but what does that look like? How good are you at adapting? Is there a right or wrong way? How can better understanding hiw humans adapt help you to understand people, and even better plan your next move?_x000D_

What does it take to survive in extreme environments? How do people adapt when the rules are harsh, the stakes are high, and every interaction matters? Whether in a high-stakes corporate office or behind prison walls, human beings are wired for survival—developing strategies, reading social cues, and navigating power structures to stay afloat. But how different are these worlds, really? What surprising parallels exist between corporate hierarchies and prison dynamics, and what do they reveal about human nature?_x000D_

Join us for a fascinating discussion led by Zevan, who spent four years working in prisons and has studied survival instincts in drastically different environments. We’ll explore how people adjust their behaviour to fit their surroundings, the mindsets that help or hurt them, and what these adaptations say about the way we all operate in everyday life. Whether you're interested in psychology or sociology or just curious about the hidden forces shaping our decisions, this conversation promises to be eye-opening._x000D_

在极端环境下生存需要什么?当规则苛刻、风险巨大、每一次互动都至关重要时,人们是如何适应的?无论是在高压的职场办公室,还是在监狱的围墙之内,人的生存本能总是让我们发展出各种策略、读懂社交信号、在权力结构中找出路。那么,这两种世界真有那么不同吗?企业层级和监狱动态之间有哪些出人意料的相似之处,它们又能揭示出关于人性的哪些秘密?_x000D_
