Exchanging ideas to create the well-being advantage

My University spin-off company, Robertson Cooper, has developed a free personal resilience tool and I’d like to invite all visitors to my blog to try it out…
 
Contrary to popular belief, resilience – our ability to bounce back from setbacks – is not something you either have or don’t have, it is a quality which can be developed.  Because our natural resilience comes from various aspects of our personality, as well as our experience, a great starting point for building resilience for individuals, managers and whole groups is to understand which of these aspects we draw on for our own resilience.  The four key sources of personal resilience are: confidence, adaptability, purposefulness and need for social support.

Your personalised i-resilience report tells you which of these key areas you draw upon for your resilience, then gives examples of how these might play out in common workplace situations which require resilience.  The i-resilience questionnaire takes around 20 minutes to complete and you receive your personal i-resilience report immediately.  After you’ve read and digested your report you can get free access to the i-resilience portal which contains further online resources for developing resilience – including insights, articles, video and book references.  You can return to the portal and continue development as often as you like.

‘A free product? Where’s the catch?’ I hear you say.  Well, in this case there is no catch – it’s part of Robertson Cooper’s mission to promote well-being and resilience in the workplace.  This means that resilience can be developed using the i-resilience tools for free, for everyone, forever.  You’ll find simple processes to invite larger groups or whole organisations to use the tool if you find it useful.  To try i-resilience please click here, I hope you find it useful and informative and if you give it a go I would very much welcome any comments or feedback on the report and portal. I’ll be sure to pass your comments on to my friends at Robertson Cooper.
