An article by Peter Crush: Building Resilience among workers in the economic upturn

 

This article in the  HR Magazine debates whether “Resilience” is just the latest buzzword in Human Resources and questions whether we should be focusing on resilience in teams at work or at the individual level.

Director of In Equilibrium, Alastair Taylor comments on why resilience training should be a focus in organisations: “This is why learning resilience is such a powerful skill.  It’s proactive.  Resilience is not just about struggles.  You can be in a fast-growing company but still need resilience.  It’s about making people more robust in themselves, making them resilient to stress by being able to say ‘no’ when it’s needed or having the tools to take control”
