Course Overview
Data on resilience against work pressure is abundant; insight about it is not. The organisation's reputation as an employer is built or lost through work pressure. A common pattern is strong design of this strand of people management and development paired with weak follow-through. They leave able to brief senior management on resilience against work pressure in terms that support a decision. Across sectors, teams that rehearse this aspect of people management and development outperform teams that only plan it. The programme converts work pressure from an area of general awareness into a set of repeatable practices. The programme uses small-group work so that each participant's treatment of resilience against work pressure is examined, not just described. The programme works equally well for those formalising work pressure for the first time and those improving an existing approach. Participants leave with a first-ninety-days plan for the practice within people management and development rather than a set of notes.
