Managing yourself Resilience Wellbeing

About Resilience

As a leader knowing how to maintain and boost your resilience is essential. Uncertain times, creativity and change all draw on our resilience and, inevitably in life, we have to navigate personal downs as well as ups. So how do we ride the waves of work and life more successfully so that we not only survive but thrive? How do we help those around us to do so too?

Human beings are a naturally resilient species. The latest science reveals we can add skills and strategies to our personal psychological toolkit that not only enable us to deal with difficulties more effectively but boost our wellbeing along the way.

Discover the key ingredients of resilience and pick up practical tips that you can put into action immediately. You’ll learn inner mindset strategies and outer tactics that will not only help you perform better but will help you feel happier too.
