What is resilience?
Resilient people are better able to handle life’s stressors and to adapt to changing situations. Resilience means controlling your ego, not panicking in the face of a setback, and having the patience and ability to stay focused on long-term goals. Resilience can help you weather storms, remain steady and make rational decisions instead of being driven by emotion. That's why it's such an important quality to have in today's ever-changing workplaces. Luckily, resilience is also something you can develop and strengthen.
The following resources from your Employee Assistance Program explain.
