Resilience is usually defined as “the positive capacity to cope with stress or adversity”. Resilience in the workplace refers to an employee’s ability to cope with the various challenges of the modern workplace: learning new technology, organisational change, downsizing, mergers, increased workload, budget pressures or deadlines.Research has shown that resilience is “the single most important factor in determining whether a person is successful, satisfied and happy”.

Resilience workshops create a Positive psychology. Positive psychology focuses on the good things and how to strengthen them. Positive psychologists seek out and nurture talent to make life more fulfilling, rather than merely treating mental illness.

Positive psychology has contributed a great deal to workplace training programs and outdoor activities.

According to Positive Psychology, there are 5 elements of well-being:

• Positive Emotion
• Engagement
• Relationships
• Meaning
• Accomplishments

All elements can be measured and there are practical exercises to improve the quality of each element in our lives. By teaching your staff how to integrate these factors at work, you’re also giving them skills they can use in their home life. This results in your staff feeling happier and more satisfied, leading to improved staff morale and workplace performance.
