Resilience in Action
Based on the book, Life’s A Bitch and Then You Change Your Attitude, Resilience in Action explores the relationship between resilience and success.  Riding the “Roller Coaster” of emotions is a process that we have come to recognize and accept as a natural way of life.  These ups and downs, the adrenaline rushes that accompany our emotions from sorrow to joy, from confusion to control and from ineffective to effective have become like old friends arriving for a visit, staying for a while and then leaving only to return again and again.  Like friends we can count on their arrival even though there are times when they are seen as distractions, interruptions or even annoyances.  The process of organizational change and how employees react to and implement changes are key to an organization’s success or failure.  Successful organizations realize that corporate resilience is directly related to the resilience of its employees.  Employees may respond to change and transition in a variety of ways.  Understanding employee responses to change and providing resilience training can minimize the negative impact on efficiency and productivity.
