Turning Adversity Into Growth

Presentation Description:
The COVID-19 pandemic upended everything and created experiences we could never have imagined. Work, home, school, leisure. It all impacts your social, professional, personal, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Many of us have experienced various stages of crises due to the emotional outcomes of enduring COVID-19. For some, it is a normal response for those affected to recall and relive a traumatic event, which is characteristic of post-traumatic stress. In contrast, when recollections are no longer precipitated by the trauma, but rather are directed by the individual, deliberate reflection can facilitate post-traumatic growth. In this webinar, let’s discuss what can lead employees into psychological trauma. We will also discuss how to respond to and interpret the trauma to facilitate and foster post-traumatic growth at work.

Session participants will understand:

  • What causes psychological trauma
  • The emotive responses to trauma and COVID-19
  • Understanding post-traumatic growth
  • How to foster post-traumatic growth in your department, your colleagues, your employees, and most importantly, yourself
  • Building resilience and prioritizing self-care
