In Short

Our resilience training is suitable for leaders, managers and any employees who need to operate effectively in demanding, high-pressure environments.
What is resilience?
Simply put, it is ‘the ability of a substance or object to bounce back into shape; elasticity’. It is the capacity to recover quickly from difficulty and adversity.
Why is resilience training important?
We live in a time where change is frequent, rapid and often intense. It is our ability to respond to, and deal effectively with, this change that is a key factor in the success of individuals, teams and organisations. You might be interested to know that in 2014, 10.4 million business days were lost to stress alone. At an average cost to businesses of £618 per day, that’s a cost of £6.4bn to the UK economy. Developing resilience is a key factor if organisations are to be agile, adaptive, creative and innovative, and to respond well to inevitable change. The ability (elasticity) of your people to bound back into shape and recover quickly from adversity becomes critical. Equipping leaders and employees with the skills to deal effectively with challenge and failure is essential for success and in creating an agile and forward-moving learning organisation.
