  • Simplifying Wellbeing and Resilience at Work: Lessons from New Zealand
    Contains 3 Component(s), Includes Credits Recorded On: 10/28/2019

    Workplaces can be filled with potential stress at the best of times: industry uncertainty, workload fatigue, and overwhelming deadlines. Throw in two of New Zealand’s most destructive earthquakes ever, 8,000 homes declared no longer habitable and a global financial crisis, and you’ve got the potential ingredients for a perfect storm in Christchurch, New Zealand. The Resilient Organizations research team used this environment to explore the difference between companies that failed, companies that survived and companies that not only survived but flourished. Your presenter, Kathryn Jackson was on the Peak Performance coaching team at an award-winning company which was studied by Resilient Organizations and it was part of her responsibility to turn their research findings into practical, everyday actions to grow wellbeing and resilience at work. As a result, she contributed to exploring how HR teams might more deliberately design long-term wellbeing and resilience programmes into workplaces. Deciding how to start and where to go when it comes to wellbeing and resilience at work can be like planning a journey without a map (or even a destination) and many organizations default to short term fixes or multiple solutions that can be overwhelming to manage. This session’s ideas aim to bridge the gap between the employer’s duty of care and the employee’s duty of self-care to grow self-managed resilience at work. Learning Objectives: Recognize the four foundations for building effective wellbeing and resilience at work; Learn to deliberately design wellbeing and resilience into your workplace from the bottom up as well as the top down; Understand how to help your employees more confidently navigate change and uncertainty so they are better able to handle it in business and in life every day.
