Leadership for Transformational ResilienceTM 

Do you often feel stressed out by the daily pressures of modern life? Do economic, social, or environmental injustices sometimes overwhelm you? Would you like to learn simple skills to transform the way you respond to stress and adversity and increase your physical health, effectiveness, and happiness? If so, the Leadership for ResilienceTM workshop can benefit you. Surveys given to participants in five Transformational Resilience (TR) Program Leadership for ResilienceTM workshops in 2014 show an extremely positive response from participants especially in terms of how much they learned and the usefulness of this information from the workshop. 

Humans are hardwired for resilience. This highly interactive workshop will teach evidence-based skills to help you acknowledge and enhance your natural capacity to weather life’s storms in a calm and confidant way and use adversity to heal, grow, and flourish.

  • The effects of hyperarousal on individual perception, problem solving, behaviors, and their associated psychosocial outcomes.
