With so many changes happening worldwide over the last few years, resilient eLearning leaders must shine. That's why we thought we'd share a fantastic article that can help online training professionals respond to adversity.
The piece is called "Building Resilience: How Learning Leaders Can Thrive During Times of Change" by Jo Maddocks, Chief Psychologist for Development, who works to boost people's emotional intelligence (EI) and resilience in the workplace. With over 25 years of experience as a business psychologist, Jo has tackled a vast range of issues to help improve individual and business performance.
His excellent piece takes a deep dive into the four psychological stages eLearning leaders can use to cope with change and adversity, which are:
- Survive - How we respond
- Adapt - How we adjust
- Recover - How we bounce back
- Thrive - How we grow
Find Resilience in Self-Reflection
Jo's main takeaway:
"Self-reflection can feel uncomfortable, particularly if it hasn't been part of organizational culture, but it's vital for longer-term health and well-being. Moving forward from a challenging situation or environment can equip you with greater insight into your strengths and how to overcome adversity. As a result, you will be better able to tackle whatever obstacles come your way and utilize your learning to bring about positive change in your organization and your life."
