What if your employees had the willingness and ability to respond quickly and flexibly to changing business needs? Sounds a little like a fairytale.
Maybe not. There are things you can do to build resilience in the workplace.
This whole conversation with Beverly Beuermann-King about building resilience in the workplace was a revelation. Beverly talks about resilience a lot at conferences as well as presenting workshops and participating in panels. Her company, Work Smart Live Smart is a resiliency and corporate culture focused company helping people deal with reactions to stress and live better lives.
A few things I noted:
- A lot of what she talks about aligns with what we know of engagement - but not all.
- The most intriguing part for me was about hope. Why don't we talk about hope at work more often? It makes total sense.
- We need employee creativity and ideas. So working them to burnout is not the answer.
Beverly has thought about this a lot and the message was so welcome. Check out the full discussion.
