Session Details

Build Your Resiliency Muscle

Building off of February's program of Navigating the Rhythm of Change, we will dive deeper into the topic of resiliency.  Given this past year, it has become even more apparent that we learn how to develop or build resilience in our personal and professional lives. During this interactive session we will discover and discuss the 10 Strategies for Building our Resiliency Muscle and create an action plan to utilize those strategies.

After this session, you will be able to:

• identify characteristics that a resilient person has and behaviors that a resilient person displays
• define what resiliency means
• understand and utilize the 10 strategies to build resiliency
• implement an action plan to develop your resiliency
