Resilience in Coaching: Trait, Skill, or Process?
- Careers and professional development

About
Resilience is a very popular topic and often a common theme to emerge in executive coaching.
However, it is unclear whether resilience is an individual trait that is rather fixed, a malleable set of skills that can be influenced by coaching, and/or a process clients move through in the face of their work and life challenges.
This webinar will explore resilience in coaching from each of these three different perspectives and provide an opportunity for participants to assess their own level of resilience.
Although it is often thought that most people rebound from work and life challenges, there are three very distinct trajectories that are common--resilience being one among them (the other two include harm and growth).
We welcome Dr Kenneth Nowack who joins our BPS Special Group in Coaching Psychology to discuss resilience in coaching and his own research over the last 15 years on identifying those who flourish in the face of work and life stress.
Attendees will learn how to help influence their coaching clients with evidence-based practices and techniques to foster high resilience, psychological well-being, and physical health.
This webinar will be recorded and made available as a recording for everyone who registers. For more information, email [email protected]
