Building resilience in uncertain times (Georgian Suite: 1.20pm-2.20pm)
A Talk by Hannah Massarella (Founder, coach and facilitator, Bird)
About this Talk
Our current world situation is both uncertain and overwhelming. The not-for-profit sector in particular is facing changes and challenges it hasn't faced in a long time, which can lead to stress and potential burn out for staff and volunteers. This workshop offers attendees the opportunity to explore the uncertainty around them, to identify how this uncertainty impacts their behaviours, thoughts and emotions, and to look at the costs both personally and organisationally of ignoring those impacts. We then go on to look at six tried and tested resilience building strategies that attendees can try out, and commit to taking forward beyond the session.
Outcomes
● Attendees have a greater understanding of what resilience really means.
● Attendees learn what low resilience might look like for them, and their colleagues.
● Attendees have a toolkit they can draw on regularly and easily to maintain their resilience.
● The group are more understanding of one another and can be supportive moving forward.
