Growth Mindset

Humans are hardwired to dislike uncertainty, which can be challenging in a global work environment where we are experiencing constant change. When we experience ambiguity and feel under pressure, we can become rigid in our reactions and resistant to changes. However, being able to adjust and thrive in ever evolving environments is essential for success and growth. Adaptability involves being aware of the impact of change on us and others, whilst embracing the opportunities that change brings to work and life.

In a rapidly changing work environment, adaptability is key to success. It involves recognising and embracing change, which brings opportunities for growth. Challenges and setbacks are inevitable in life and work, but resilience—our ability to persevere and bounce back—keeps us focused and optimistic. Developing resilience enhances mental fitness, improves wellbeing, and boosts performance.

Effective communication enables effective leadership. During these changing and uncertain times managers need to be skilled communicators to navigate their teams to higher performance. Communication at all levels of an organisation helps managers develop open and trusting relationships. We communicate verbally and non-verbally every minute we interact at work which is fundamental to success. Communication can sometimes be seen as transactional leading to superficial conversations. This module explores ways for managers to communicate deeply, develop meaningful relationships, build trust and create spaces for open discussions leading to better engagement, innovation collaboration, well-being and performance.

Effective decision making is known to be impeded by strong emotions and personal bias. By developing better critical thinking skills, we can more objectively analyse the realities of a situation and anticipate the outcomes of our possible responses. This session equips participants with tools and strategies that will support them in identifying and solving problems in their roles, through application of defined processes.

With the opportunity to connect with anyone worldwide, expanding one’s professional network has never been more accessible. Building connections with strangers can be nerve-wracking.
