The Q3 event from the IoD Next Gen Forum invites you to explore one of the most essential capabilities for modern professionals: resilience.
The Resilience Advantage: Navigate, Adapt & Overcome Challenge
We face countless challenges—at work, at home, and throughout life. While we often receive training to tackle technical problems, many of the toughest challenges we encounter aren’t technical at all. This workshop is designed to equip you with the skills—not just strategies or coping mechanisms—to navigate, reframe, and grow through challenge.
Join us for a practical and thought-provoking session tailored for next-gen professionals. You’ll walk away with:
- Seven high-performance skills to use personally and with others
- Tools for immediate application in both work and life
- A shared language and toolkit to strengthen team culture
Led by Jon Watkins, CEO of the multi-award-winning Resilience Development Co. and former UK Special Forces team leader, the workshop draws on real-world experience in building resilient teams and cultures across sectors.
