Serendipity is the name given to those “happy accidents” we experience throughout life – finding a person, idea, or resource we didn’t expect, but greatly needed. These encounters enrich our lives with new experiences, connections, and insights.

I call this process “Tactical Serendipity” — please read my full article about it on HuffPost, here.
