This webinar has now taken place. However, you can watch it again here (registration is required).

Top Takeaway points

Definition of resilience “Resilience is the ability to absorb pressure without breaking, to bounce back from setbacks and thrive”.

“Ability”- Implies resilience can be learnt and improved

“Absorb pressure” – Unfortunately pressure is inevitable and something we have

“Without breaking” – We know this because we see and hear about people who recover

“Bouncing back”- Overcoming situations quicker and more efficiently e.g. injury or job related loss/move

“Thrive”- In all aspects of life being happy and content. Resilience enables people to thrive under pressure

Resilience isn’t really a state of being it’s a state of doing.
You do things to be resilient.
If you do the right things you build resilience if you do the wrong things resilience is impacted.
Practiced on a regular basis these really help to build a high level of resilience.

Remember the bicycle wheel from the webinar these are the common resilience factors, if not watch again here, if each one is strong and correctly aligned your wheel will run true and your journey will be efficient and smooth. If one becomes damaged or is showing signs of wear, your journey will be more challenging and this will put more pressure and demand on your other spokes.
Connection – People who have strong connections at work and at home are more resistant to stress.
Growth – Maintain a focus on team development both personally and professionally.
Choice Inspire your teams to choose how they respond to situations. Remember, we all experience bad days and we all go through our share of crises. But we have a choice in how we respond.
Lifestyle – Endorse healthy lifestyle behaviours such as getting enough sleep and exercising on a daily basis. When you take care of your mind and body, you’re better able to cope effectively with challenges in your life.
Balance – Ensure your teams take all entitled breaks, don’t regularly work past contracted hours and use their holiday entitlement to fully rest and recover.
Environment – Make the workplace a pleasant and happy environment. Adopt an open and trusting management style and empower people to manage their own workloads.
