\u201cChange is the only constant in life.\u201d You may not have known that this quote originated from Greek philosopher, Heraclitus, but we bet you\u2019ve heard it a time or two! With the start of a New Year, a change in administration and so many other upcoming events, many of us are feeling the uncertainty  (and stress!) of change in our professional and personal life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Change is always going to happen, but how we deal with it is crucial. It\u2019s about our level of resilience<\/strong>, otherwise known as the ability to tolerate difficult or stressful situations while still remaining positive and productive. Some call it the ability to \u201cbounce back.\u201d According to the APA Dictionary of Psychology: \u2018Resilience is the process and outcome of successfully adapting to difficult or challenging life experiences, especially through mental and behavioral flexibility and adjustment to both external and internal demands.\u2019 It\u2019s a crucial component for your physical and emotional wellbeing and can mean the difference between surviving and thriving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embrace the 7 C\u2019s. <\/strong>Understanding and embodying the 7 C\u2019s of resilience can transform how you approach both your professional and personal life. It enables you to navigate obstacles with strength and confidence. Although initially directed at childhood development, Dr. Kenneth Ginsberg’s 7 Cs of resilience are vital in today\u2019s ever-changing workplace. Let’s break it down:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Competence:<\/strong> Develop the skills and knowledge to handle workplace situations effectively.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Confidence:<\/strong> Build the self-confidence to trust your abilities and judgment in challenging situations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Connection:<\/strong> Foster strong relationships with team members to creative a supportive, collaborative environment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Character:<\/strong> Cultivate your personal values and integrity to guide your behavior and decision-making process.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Contribution:<\/strong> Feeling that your contributions matter in order to build a sense of purpose and value.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Coping:<\/strong> Develop effective ways to manage stress and adversity. This includes building problem solving and emotional regulation skills.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Control:<\/strong> Focus on the parts of work you can control (i.e., your decisions and reactions) and let the rest go.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    We can help. <\/strong><\/a>It sounds like a lot, especially when you feel like you\u2019re just trying to stay afloat and manage your day-to-day tasks. But you don\u2019t have to go it alone. Our new course, Building Resilience In Times Of Uncertainty<\/strong>, focuses on how to manage the stress, anxiety and uncertainty of \u201cwhat\u2019s next.\u201d This course includes a resilience assessment and provides feedback about resiliency levels in 3 key areas: Challenge, Control <\/strong>and Commitment<\/strong>. Participants learn how to increase their resiliency and better prepare and manage uncertainty in their career and personal life. And who doesn\u2019t want that, especially in today\u2019s world?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
