The Fundamentals of Resilience (Udemy.com)

Relentless change and volatility.  Escalating expectations.  Changing roles, values and cultures.  Limited resources.  Increasing complexity.  Economic uncertainty.

The world has always been a challenging place.  Many of us are trying to cope with face paced and unpredictable change.  The only thing that we can be certain about change - it's not going to stop.

People with good levels of resilience perform well despite ceaseless challenges and high stress.  They have tenacity, are adaptive, collaborative, and innovative.  They have the ability to focus on and achieve their goals, even in the face of adversity.

If you are reading this, it is probably because you have heard a lot about resilience or know a little bit about it but you are keen to find out more.

There is no universal panacea.  Each human being is unique and faces challenges that are individual to them, so the course focuses on building your resilience by working on your exclusive set of strengths and skills and your internal protective factors that underpin your resilience.

The course also investigates the ways that the internal factors work to protect your mental health and wellbeing and ways to support these in your work environment.

The course is based on many years of scientific research and knowledge but, most importantly, it is a course focused on practical application and includes 3 case studies to highlight this.

No previous knowledge is required for you to benefit from the course.  You will be considering ways to apply the knowledge in your daily life.
