Resilience is a key characteristic of high-performing leaders. We need to cultivate it within ourselves in order to advance and thrive. Resilient leaders help protect the energy of the people in their teams. They ‘bounce back’ from setbacks and misfortune and tap into their inner-strengths not only to cope but to rise above challenges.

Science has uncovered specific traits/factors that can be utilised at work and in our lives in general that will make us more resilient.  We can all learn to become more resilient.

This Webinar will explore the science of resilience and highlight evidence-based strategies linked to positive outcomes during challenging times.

This Webinar will be delivered by Shane Martin C.Psychol.,Ps.S.I.  Shane Martin is a psychologist dedicated to teaching the very best evidence-based psychology to help people protect their mental health and enhance the quality of their lives.
