Resiliency Building 

Resilience is an important building block of individual well-being.  While everyone is born with a natural resilience, the degrees of this resilience can vary.

This e-module series teaches participants that with self-awareness and practice, they can build on that natural resilience and strengthen their abilities to cope when faced with difficult or challenging situations.

At the end of the session, participants will be able to implement different strategies to thrive under pressure and face challenging situations, both personally and professionally.
