Resilience Roadshow Southampton (11th April, 2013)
Event Information
Description
Resilience Roadshow Southampton
This free event, hosted by the Eastpoint Centre and supported by Southampton Connect, is one of a number of Roadshows organised by Work-Life Solutions across the UK to raise awareness of evidence based approaches to managing work-related stress and enhancing wellbeing at work.
There is maximum of 2 tickets allowed per organization. This is because of high demand for places and to allow the maximum number of organisations to benefit from attendance.
This Roadshow discusses Resilience (individual and organizational). The tough economic climate is placing great pressures on organisations to cut costs and to do more with less. This has placed a premium on finding ways to boost resilience: across the organization, within teams and within individuals. We look at psychological research into resilience and introduce tools found to be effective for individuals and organizations, particularly from the field of positive psychology.
(Please note, if you wish to attend the Roadshow on Stress Management Competencies, which takes place in the afternoon in the same location, you need to register separately for that event).
