Description: Why do some
people remain so calm and collected in the face of looming deadlines, combative
meetings, impending layoffs, and turbulent changes? And why are these seemingly
unflappable people the ones who consistently get ahead in their lives and their
careers? The key to success is their resilience, according to the founders of
the innovative Hardiness Institute in Newport Beach, California. More than
experience or training, resilience in the face of stressful situations and
rapid changes determines whether you ultimately succeed or fail in the
workplace.
Resilience at Work explains how to:
* Approach
change as a meaningful challenge no matter how stressful the circumstances, and
stay committed to your work, rather than detaching and giving up.
* Gain control
by understanding the upside and the downside of change, and take actions to
influence beneficial outcomes.
* Turn stressful
changes to your advantage and map out sound problem-solving strategies.
* Resolve
ongoing conflicts and build an environment of assistance and encouragement
between you and your coworkers.
* Decrease
feelings of isolation and powerlessness by understanding the 3Cs that give you
the ability to thrive amid disruptive changes: commitment, control, and
challenge.
