Life is never straightforward or without challenges. As Australians we are constantly battling the elements, facing bushfires, drought, and floods. Now on top of this, we are dealing with the pressure of a global pandemic, and the subsequent economic hardship.

So, when faced with such adversity in life, how do we cope or adapt? And why do some people seem to bounce back much more quickly than others? This is due to our resilience, which is an often mentioned, but rarely defined, wide-ranging skillset that encompasses self-awareness, flexibility, determination, humour, and grit.

This workshop will provide participants with the knowledge of the types of situations that require resilience, and with the professional guidance of the presenter, it will equip them with the skills needed to navigate the adversities of life.

• A good introduction to resilience as a concept and its benefits in modern life.
• Awareness of events that occur at work, and in our personal lives, that require resilience to navigate effectively.
• Strategies to assist in reflecting on challenges and formulating plans, to aide in the practical implementation of resilience in daily life
• Knowledge of how to foster resilience in groups as well as individually
