Product Description
Learning Outcomes
At the end of this interactive one day training program, you will:
- develop your understanding of personal and professional resilience
- explore various resilience models and frameworks
- build your resilience through the development and application of practical skills, tools and strategies
- strengthen your ability to effectively manage challenging situations and stressful events
- understand the brain’s natural negativity bias and the importance of self-talk and developing a growth mindset
- use the professional resilience skills developed to enhance peer learning, engage and develop staff, as well as provide professional support to peers
The training includes many opportunities for reflection and review. Non-threatening group activities are incorporated throughout the day.
Who Should Attend
- health, school and community professionals who would like to manage personal and professional challenges and setbacks by appropriately responding rather than simply reacting to upsetting situations and conversations
- professionals previously trained in developing resiliency (as a refresher)
- supervisors/managers who would like to role model resiliency, and wish to engage, support and enhance peer learning through professional development
Building staff’s resilience helps employees learn to better manage their emotions and to respond rather than react to upsetting situations and conversations. People who are resilient are able to manage setbacks and challenges and can overcome obstacles and barriers with a solutions’ focused and proactive outlook. They have increased self-awareness and are effectively able to identify the symptoms and sources of stress, as well as take action to address them.
Please note that all participants are invited to fill out a pre-training needs assessment form to assist us in tailoring the training to suit your specific setting.
