How to build resilience long term and sustain it in times of change and complexity

We live in a fast-moving world that is characterised by change, increasing demands and complexity. To successfully navigate, sustain performance criteria and thrive amongst these challenges, we need to become more resilient in our thinking, our leadership and in our approach to problem solving. In this respect, resilience is your competitive edge, your ability to bounce back in the face of adversity.

Summary

When we are under pressure, resilience is the key capability that helps us control our thoughts and emotions and sustain good health. Self-awareness is a key factor in resilient performance. Through practical discussion and instructor-led content, you will gain a better understanding of your stressors and how to manage them. You’ll learn how to increase performance and productivity in the face of organisational, team and project change, tight deadlines and additional responsibilities.

A new study that surveyed over 300 top UK businesses concluded that the key skills that employers require include adaptability (71.5%), resilience (57.5%) and being able to balance your work and personal life (29.2%).

This makes resilience an essential aspect of your personal and professional development, and your competitive currency in our global economy.
