Resilience
Stress and setbacks are part of working in a rapidly changing world. In this workshop you learn to deal with them effectively, so you not only get through them but come out stronger. The workshop consists of 2 half-days for 6 to 12 participants, in Dutch or English.
Do you recognise this?
A project gets stuck, the deadline is brought forward and a few people in your team call in sick. You feel your heart beating faster and your thoughts jump in all directions. What you saw clearly ten minutes earlier is suddenly a fog.
At home it joins you at the table. You are not entirely there, and you notice you are short with the people who can do nothing about it.
When the pressure increases:
- you get stressed and lose your focus;
- you let fear hold you back with new challenges;
- you take work stress home with you;
- you notice that setbacks throw your team off balance.
How you deal with stress and setbacks makes the difference for yourself and for your team.
Why does stress linger when the storm has passed?
Stress and setbacks are part of the job, and that will not change. What does differ is how quickly you catch your breath again. Without ways to deal with it, the tension stays in your body and costs you and your team energy and focus.
Then every new challenge becomes something to dread. You dare less, your team loses its balance at the first setback, and the day ends heavier than it began.
It does not have to stay this way. You can learn to deal with pressure and grow through it.
How do you become more resilient under pressure?
Resilience is not an innate trait that some have and others do not. It is a skill you build, with techniques that help your body and your thoughts recover.
Our coaches know the pressure of a changing working world. With the 5-factor model of resilience and insight into the biology of stress, you get a clear framework to understand what happens inside you and what you can do about it.
In two half-days you practise techniques against stress and learn to come out stronger. This way you build a foothold for yourself and for your team step by step.
