The Resilient Leadership Lab

This is a four-part series focused on building leadership resilience skills through change. Each part is 3 hours long and can be delivered over consecutive days or spread out over weeks.

Session One: Leading through Change
While governance, procedures and policies are the rules for change, it is important to remember the human side, including the emotions and behaviour that will sustain the change. Learn how to engage people before, during, and after an organisational change effort.

Session Two: Thriving in Ambiguity

Discover how to apply a learning mindset during uncertain times by recognising when teams are overwhelmed and how to lead them through. With a focus on problem solving, you can redefine success and celebrate wins. Understanding communication during ambiguous times will enable greater clarity, focus and empathy with your teams and across the business.

Session Three: Being a Flexible Leader
Adopt a mindset to thrive despite uncertainty and complexity and focus on a small number of high-impact improvement approaches to secure a culture of positive change. Implement small and learn fast through disciplined inquiry and gather and use evidence to guide all phases of improvement work to build the norms and routines of high-impact, fast moving teams.

Session Four: Build personal resilience and foster team resilience
In this final session you will analyse the potential sources of stress in the work environment impacting on yourself and your team and have a range of tools to help teams increase their resilience over short and long-term periods. You will develop strategies to build and maintain resilience in yourself and your team, design approaches to monitor stress levels within a team and understand the difference between Micro and Macro resilience strategies and how to apply them personally and within the business.
