Resiliency Advantage

Leadership Skills for Developing Resiliency in Yourself and Your Workforce

Overview

Nonstop, disruptive change in Federal agencies is pressuring everyone to do more work with fewer people, in less time, in new ways and with a reduced budget.  In the past, Government executives and managers had to learn ways to be resilient on their own; but now, the new science of resiliency psychology can help you develop resiliency strengths that work in your unique circumstances.

In this innovative and interactive seminar, you will learn to develop the five levels of resiliency, to be flexible and adaptable, to thrive in constant change and to increase the resiliency of your workforce. Using a unique methodology, participants influence which topics are emphasized.
