Bouncing Forward: Leading Yourself and Your Team’s Resilience

Building your own and your team’s resilience is now a “must-have” leadership competency. Your team and organization must be resilient in responding constructively during a crisis, “bouncing back,” and building agile capabilities.

Watch this master class, led by Prof. David M. Sluss, PhD, Professor of Management at ESSEC Business School, as he provides evidence-based “do’s” and “don’ts” for: 

• Building a “resilience dashboard” for your team;

• Encouraging resilience-building conversations;

• Investing in “role crafting” to align career goals with crisis learning opportunities;

• As well as enacting “patience boosters” for replenishing your team’s vitality.
