“Resilience - the intelligent deployment of limited personal resources”Dean Becker - Adaptiv Learning Systems

Psychological resilience has become a factor that has recentlygained more attention in the business world mainly due to thebusiness and economic challenges that are facing organisationsand the people they employ. Simply put it’s the ability to overcomesetbacks and bounce back quickly to peak performance. We how-ever, look at it a little closer in that we examine how an individualwill stay problem focused, stay on task and energised particularlywhen facing large scale change, uncertainty and ambiguity.

Everyone can think of a situation when they have wasted too muchtime trying to solve a problem where they have actually little or nocontrol over the outcome. On the other hand they can also think ofsituations where they have disengaged and given up prematurelyand so missed the opportunities to solve the problems that comethere way. Whatever the case, they have missed a valuable opportunity to place their limited personal resources where they mayget the best return for effort. It doesn’t have to be this way!
