Resiliency Training as a new Trend
Resiliency Training is Replacing Stress Management Training:
This model focuses on teaching employees how to become “steeled” to stressful
situations before they manifest as stress, and to learn from stressful experiences.
Definition of Resiliency
The “self-righting tendency” of the person, “both the capacity to be bent without
breaking and the capacity, once bent, to spring back.”
-George Vaillant, 1993
Characteristic of Resilient People Self Efficacy Personal Vision Flexible & Adaptable Organized Problem Solver Emotional Intelligence Intrapersonal Skills Assertive
Why Resiliency?
• Individuals trained in resiliency have:• more and better defined coping
strategies, • Increased effectiveness of existing coping
skills, • engage in more problem-solving, and • report fewer physical symptoms of illness.
Resiliency Training in the Workplace
Companies have found that an effective resiliency program can result in up to a 300% return on
investment per employee.
What are people saying? “ I feel more flexible and accepting of
change” “I feel better able to identify solutions” “I am more focused at work” “I can problem solve and prioritize better” “I have learned how to set boundaries better” “I know when to ask for help and when to
work it out myself” “I feel more in control of my emotions”
