Resilient Leadership Training
This course is for individuals who would like to develop their leadership skills and also learn effective strategies to support self-care and recognise when team members may be struggling.
Dealing with uncertainty is recognised as one of the most significant leadership challenges. This course will support leaders, HODs, managers and help them better manage the pressure and emotional toll of supporting and guding a team.
This training will provide tools and strategies to help individuals develop the mindset and behaviours to communicate effectively, maintain boundaries and navigate uncertainty whilst supporting their own self-care and the well-being of their team.
The areas of focus:
Part 1: Resilient Thinking and Supporting Self-Care
How resilient are you? Resilience is the ability to adapt in the face of challenging circumstances. Resilient leaders have the ability to cope with disruption, adversity and frequent changes. They adapt under immense pressure, all whilst maintaining positivity and managing their teams effectively.
With the acute physical, mental, emotional and social behaviours inevitably highlighted by COVID-19 resiliency is the key to supporting and managing teams. We will look at how to boost self- care and manage workplace stress.
Topics covered will include:
- Where are we now?
- The impact of workplace stress
- Cognitive distortions
- Cognitive restructuring
- Emotional resilience
- Self-care
Part 2: Leading With Vision and Supporting Others
Now that unhelpful thinking styles have been identified, we will discuss setting expectations, team goals, effective communication strategies and having difficult conversations. Developing personal adaptability is central, and a growth mindset is key.
We will look at the difficulties of communicating effectively and with empathy and how to spot the signs someone is struggling.
Topics covered will include:
- Building trust within a larger team
- Effective communication
- Is what you say what your team hear?
- Spotting the signs someone is struggling
- How to offer support
