Do you ever:

  • Feel emotionally drained from your work?
  • Find yourself fatigued by the thought of another day on the job?
  • Question if you are making a positive contribution in your work?

If these sentiments resonate with your experience, like many other Americans, you may be experiencing burnout. The encouraging news is burnout can be prevented or reversed through cultivating resilience.

This activity will briefly introduce approaches, skills, and techniques to help you develop natural resilience. The concepts of connecting to meaning and purpose, and positive psychology will be presented. You will leave with actionable tools to help you grow and strengthen your professional resilience to enhance personal wellbeing.
