Resilience

Resilience Squirrel
“Resilience is that ineffable quality that allows some people to be knocked down by life and come back stronger than ever. Rather than letting failure overcome them and drain their resolve, they find a way to rise from the ashes.”
Positivepsychology.com

Resilience is bounce-back ability i.e. the ability to overcome challenges or failures after they have occurred.  It can often be confused with Mental Toughness, something we are likely to require before a challenge or the experience of failure.

 

While it is in part a personality trait like many aspects of personality it can be developed or eroded by our experiences in life.

 

Equally research shows us that there are ways to develop resilience cognitively through coaching and mind training.

Because the way we develop resilience during our life is very personal to circumstance and/or experience we can have very different perceptions of how it feels to ‘be’ resilient both as an individual and as an organisation.
