Course Overview
Developing resilience is critical for all individuals as work tasks, projects and problems become increasingly complex due to the constant and inevitable changes in our work and global environment. This complexity requires individuals to develop their ability to adapt and bounce back when things do not go as planned.
Resilience is important as it enables individuals to develop mechanisms to protect themselves in potentially overwhelming and stressful situations. It also helps us to maintain a balance in our work life and during challenging and stressful times.
A resilient workforce is able to find new levels of engagement and empowerment. Resilient teams thrive on and respond confidently to personal and professional challenges while maintaining optimum performance and delivering enhanced productivity.
