Resilience Matters

Our stress reduction model has been making a big difference to the lives of our clients’ workforces. Just recently we have been honoured with the Best Consultancy Partnership prize for our work with Genzyme Sanofi, at the Irish Institute of Training and Development National Training Awards. In 12 months we achieved a 30% reduction in absenteeism and an 18% reduction in visits to occupational health. These are amazing results for a soft skills intervention. Our Resilience program also resulted in Genzyme winning the National Pharma award for Health and Safety through resilience this year. So what is it that Resilience Matters does differently? We are all being asked to do more with fewer resources, and that can increase both our personal stress levels and those of our colleagues. Our simple, proven, and effective model can quickly help your organisation to improve productivity, reduce absenteeism, and create an environment where fewer employees need time off work because of stress. In a nutshell, think of your organisation and your employee’s as two sides of a weighing scales. We look at the normal sources of stress within your organisation, issues like relationships, demands, control, support, and how change is managed, and help you to create an action plan to address these. This is a surprisingly simple process. One the other side are individuals who are all reacting differently to the same environment. People who are managing poorly, and those to whom it’s like water off a duck’s back. We want everyone to be like the duck. We work with your staff to help them understand stress, their reaction to it, and teach them to control their own stress response. This happens in a one day training event called The Resilient Mind. Please let me know when would be a good time to meet up for a no obligation chat with you, to show you how Resilience Matters can make your workplace happier, and at the same time improve your bottom line.
