Management Development

Building Resilience has probably never been more important and yet many of us struggle to stay resilient in the face of difficult situations, pressure and stress. Increasing personal resilience in our work and personal lives means having a greater openness to change, avoiding our ‘thinking traps’ and engaging in a positive mindset.

This programme will give the participant useable strategies to build the personal resilience they need to manage pressure and stress.  Participants will be introduced to a range of practical tools and techniques to support them in taking care of their wellbeing.

Key Facts

Delivery Method

Personal Resilience and Wellbeing is a one-day course (10:00 am - 4:30 pm) that will be delivered remotely and facilitated by a subject matter expert. Course times may be subject to change.

The IPA’s approach is to use a blend of short presentations, facilitated discussions, practical exercises, and individual and group reflection in an interactive way to facilitate the participants’ learning.

Please note that as this is an interactive programme of training with an emphasis on engagement and skill building, we limit the size of the group.  If you wish to book places for a number of staff from a single organisation, we recommend that you contact training@ipa.ie in the first instance, as a tailored programme may be more suitable.
