Resilience for Thriving Teams
After months of disruption, we face a new and different workplace.


After months of disruption, fatigued, fragile, burnt out, and stressed workers face a new and different workplace. Perhaps an office where seeing colleagues is either a relief or daunting. Or maybe hybrid working means endless possibilities or just isolation.
In times of uncertainty, leaders need to show compassion, not empathy. And focus on individual and team resilience and support a return to something resembling normal operations and expectations. To re-build relationships, trust and psychological safety, and develop new habits to create human connections.
The first step is to reconnect with your team to have a conversation and understand what each individual needs to thrive.
