Resilience: New Blog
Sharon Bar-David has a new blog on the topic of resilience in the workplace.
I found this excerpt from a recent post on her blog particularly grabbing.
----------------
Resilience, according to one definition, is ‘The ability to recover quickly from setbacks’. Clearly, the execs in the study demonstrated superb resilience. The problem for most ordinary folks, however, is that they let their fear of the world ‘out there’ drive their actions. They fret that they may not survive if they ever lost their current position and this serves as a deterrent from taking proactive action. I have seen, in the course of my change-related workshops, many a good people staying long after they needed to leave, or fearing to speak up solely due to their horror of what may happen and their lack of trust in their own resilience.So yes, resilience is key: nurturing our resilience, believing in it, trusting in it.

How resilient are you – and what do you do to build and maintain your resilience?
Because there is one thing you can count on – that is change. And not always the change that you anticipate.
