The demands of an increasingly complex global business environment require managers to be more resilient, creative and productive than ever before. To flourish in today’s crisis, we are required to reach a new level of understanding and practice including the way our businesses are run, the way we think, and the way we relate to others." Positive Psychology is a new field pioneered by Martin Seligman (author of Learned Optimism and Authentic Happiness).

Recent research conducted by Seligman and others clearly links ’mental toughness’ to improvements in personal resilience, creativity, health, well being and work performance. Evidence-based interventions are emerging from this field that provide clear, practical pathways to increased performance and resilience both on an individual and organisational level. This work also suggests that competitive edge, bottom line profitability, job performance, retention and satisfaction, are coming not from traditional sources such as financial and structural investment, but from sources found within the realms of ’human capital’, namely building resilience, optimism, hope and confidence.

This course aims to present both personal and interpersonal foundations to building mental toughness, resilience and well being. It draws its material from the burgeoning research on positive emotion and from workshops with Martin Seligman and other key positive psychology researchers, to introduce you to interventions as the means to building a solid foundation for personal leadership which builds the foundation for effective organisational leadership.

The Competitive Advantage You Can Learn

Mental toughness is a learned process that provides superior resilience. This course will demonstrate why some people already possess it and give you the tools so you can possess it too!

Dean Becker said: “More than education,�experience, (and) training a person’s resilience will determine who succeeds and who fails.� (How Resilience Works �HBR OnPoint #1709 by Diane L. Coutu, senior editor)

Mental Toughness is a tool that will enable you to meet and overcome the adversities and hardships that cause others to stumble or slow down.

Study after study - from education, to sport, to health and business - shows that this capacity for resilience is one that delivers greater results. It provides significant competitive advantage enabling you to take the knocks, recover swiftly and get up again quickly, ready to move forward faster than the competition.

Adversity is a fact of life. Being mentally tough and resilient will enable you to master the negative influences at work and in life - achieving where others struggle. This course will provide you with the capacity to:

�Persist against adversity and setbacks, until successful
�Be composed under pressure
�Handle adversity with aplomb
�Embrace changes at work and in life generally
�Turn the vision into reality
�Improvise creatively
�Enjoy better health and well-being
�Be more productive (work smarter)

Topics Covered
The material covered in this course draws on the latest research of the eminent motivational psychologist Dr. Martin E. P. Seligman, Author of “Learned Optimism & Authentic Happiness� Many hundreds of studies show conclusively that mental toughness and resilience is a predictor of mood, motivation, and achievement (Seligman), and can be learned. For many people and organisations learned habits of thinking about, and perceiving the causes of adversities and setbacks severely handicaps their capacity for the resilience needed to overcome them quickly.
