Does that imply that there Is no place for vulnerability & failure from time to time? Do we want employees to be elite soldiers, or is it a fancy way to mask unreasonable demands from organisations or just another lens to differentiate between performing & non-performing employees?
Resilience is, as borne out by research, like a X factor. It is seen as a differentiating competence in those that achieve despite odds, the ability to bounce back despite setbacks, the seemingly chosen ones who outshine & continue when all others give up.
At Mindwize, we view resilience as not an absolute measure. It is highly contextual. And it can be developed over time.
It is a state which relies a lot on personal aspects. However it is heavily embedded in relationships and contexts. For an organisation, the environment and factors are significantly controllable – and therefore provide an ability to influence higher resilience.
This directly co-relates to higher engagement, more team work & results, increased agility, greater well-being & an empowering cultural context. In our programs we focus on all 3 aspects – personal, relational and organizational to help your employees, context & culture build greater resilience.
Our expertise on the mental, emotional & group dynamics helps put the individual and the organisation at the centre of design – to make resilience relatable, actionable & relevant.
