Resiliency and Effectiveness
Presenter: Cyndi Harris, TREC Senior Associate
Our work is filled with opportunity and driven by our passion. While rewarding, the needs for our time, attention and energy frequently, if not always, exceeds what is available. Overwhelm for many, is the most common experience in the week. Yet, we want to be effective, engaged, and “have a life.” We’ll explore what we can do to “fuel” our life to support effectiveness and engagement with an eye toward cultivating a positive experience for ourselves and in our organizations. We’ll take a look at resilience in this webinar, including what it is and what it is not and how resilience can help us foster well-being in our lives and organizations.
Participants will:
- Understand the biology of being overwhelmed and what can help
- Define what resilience is for you and what you will do foster resilience for yourself
- Understand the relationship between stress, overwhelm, and resilience and identify strategies to foster effectiveness and engagement on an on-going basis
- Identify 3 things you can do to foster your resilience
