Resilience

Maintaining a positive focus of the future

Personal resilience is ‘the capacity to mobilise personal features that enable individuals, groups and communities (including controlled communities such as a workforce) to prevent, tolerate, overcome and be enhanced by adverse events and experiences’.

At Roberts Slater we offer our own unique approach to building resilience, which embraces new ways of thinking and behaving. Our programmes explore the relationship between resilience and sustainable team performance, looking at the personal resilience of the leader as a role-model and how this directly influences team behaviours.

‘Shine a Light’

This can be offered as a 1-1 coaching programme or a group/coaching workshop. The programme focusses on enabling the individual to take personal responsibility for their own thinking and behaviours in order to achieve greater personal resourcefulness and can include:

  • Thinking positive outcomes – Clients explore how their own thinking drives their behaviour and the success they have
  • Know yourself – Through profiling and exploring their values, clients increase their self awareness, self belief and self esteem
  • Understand Impact – Clients explore how others and their own behaviour can impact their confidence, self esteem and emotions
  • Understand your mood and energy – Clients explore how where their mood is can impact their energy levels, how they feel and their ability to tackle challenging situations
  • Creating the future – Moving forward, clients explore strategies to increase their resilience and storyboard these in future based situations

Top–ups

We recognise that we all have times when life or work can become challenging. We work with individuals, teams and organisations to ensure the strategies they create are applied in real life and at those challenging times there will be tools and support available to keep them motivated and energised to tackle those adverse situations and events.

Our programme is flexible and can be tailor made to match your own situation and specific needs.
