What is Resilience?

Resilience is the psychological strength that enables people to successfully overcome challenges, stress, crises or changes and to grow from them. It includes the ability to adapt to new conditions, to deal constructively with stress and to remain capable of acting even under pressure. Resilient people have inner resources such as self-efficacy, emotional stability, self-management, mindfulness and solution-oriented thinking. Resilience can be learned and can be specifically promoted and strengthened both individually and in teams and organizations.

The Resilience Training for Managers

In a time of constant change, uncertainty and high demands, managers are under immense pressure. Stress, quick decisions and complex challenges are part of their daily business – but if they do not pay attention to their own resilience, they run the risk of burning out or not leading their team effectively. At the same time, a lack of resilience not only affects individual performance but also the entire organization: inflexible structures, a lack of adaptability and a culture of uncertainty can destabilize companies in crises.

This resilience training helps you to strengthen your personal resilience in a targeted way and at the same time to help shape a resilient organization as a manager. You will learn how to deal with stress in a confident manner, develop mental strength and analyze your individual protective and risk factors using the vulnerability-stress model. You will also learn which factors influence organizational resilience and how you, as a manager and team leader, can create a resilient corporate culture in which the ability to change and psychological security are promoted.

Through practical exercises, reflection and concrete action strategies, you will gain valuable tools for your day-to-day management. Not only will you become more resilient and decisive in challenging situations, but you will also be able to make your team, employees and company resilient in the long term – for more stability, sustainable development, work-life balance, better relationships and success in uncertain times. Use this offer as face-to-face or online training – all participants receive seminar documents with extensive information on all modules.
