Resilience

Resilience

Today’s employees operate under stressful and complex conditions. As well as pressures to achieve more with less, there are often uncertainties created by constant change and the need to adapt to challenging work environments.

Resilient people have the ability to recover from adversity, stay on track when the going gets tough, turn challenges into opportunities, and achieve targets in the face of adversity. Resilience involves positive attitudes and feelings resulting in flexible and robust behaviour.

Our highly interactive courses draw on insights from the fields of stress management, neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and have been developed to ensure staff and managers can thrive and achieve positive outcomes under the most demanding work conditions.

Personal Resilience Courses

On our core one day programme delegates will cover:

  • The key resilience attributes, qualities and behaviours
  • Review of personal resilience qualities against the above standards
  • How to challenge negative and undermining attitudes in self and others
  • Use of the ABC approach to maintain optimism and convert challenges into opportunities
  • Maintaining a personal locus of control when faced with complex demands
  • Working collaborately with others and harnessing group resilience
  • Maintaining perspective under pressure; big versus small picture; future versus pesent
  • Letting go of the past and tolerating ambiguity
  • Achieving a balance between work and the rest of your life
