Why is Resilience Important? – Exploring why resilience is important to us as individuals and the attributes of resilient people. Identifying the participants own resilience levels and how they currently cope with workplace challenges.
Positive Vs. Negative Thinking – Reviewing a case study that explores how negative thinking can impact on how a negative reaction to a minor setback could escalate negative feelings and affect how work is approached. Completing a questionnaire to establish what type of thinker the participant is.
The Three Dimensions – Understanding; Permanence, Pervasiveness and Personalisation and the individual’s ability to ‘bounce-back’. This links back to the previous questionnaire and poses several questions that help the participant to focus on areas of improvement for the future.

Includes the chance to both explore the approach and identify with personal experiences.
Locus of Control – This model explores the idea that individuals perceive issues either from an internal or external perspective (thinks happen to them, or because of them). The model is introduced and participants explore an exercise that identifies their own outlook and the effect this might have on them. Includes tips on being more internally driven.
Levels of Resilience – Exploring the relationship between individual and organisational resilience and where there might be some crossover.
The Resilience Grid – Several examples of the resilience grid for individuals and organisations and the chance to complete a grid to define what they can do to improve resilience in both areas.
