How resilient are you?
Everyone has the ability to build or maintain their levels of resilience.
QED have created a Personal Resilience Questionnaire to reveal which of the five key components you may naturally draw on for resilience, and which areas you may need to work on to improve your resilience. You may want to build on any areas of strength or manage any potential areas of risk.
Over a set of 70 statements, you will be able to decide whether you agree or disagree that they are usually true for you. The outcome is to provide a snapshot of your opinion of your Personal Resilience.
If you are more aware of your resilience levels - that is the first step in building resilience. This will help you understand where to spend your time and effort to improve your resilience, performance and wellbeing.
The Resilience Questionnaire is a downloadable pdf which includes a score chart. An explanation of the questionnaire results is located on the QED Questionnaire page which you will also gain access to.
QED know that great leadership performance can be created ‘on purpose’ and deliver predictably outstanding results, so we develop resilient leaders who:
Have honest relationships with people
Can discuss behavioural performance with people
Are aware of how they and others ‘tick’
Encourage useful and stimulating conflict and challenge
Have a strong sense of purpose and encourage people to join them on their journey
Balance innovation and imagination with a desire to execute
Solve problems and seize opportunities one step at a time
Can endure difficulty and reliably deliver
Are aware of risk and see risk as a series of manageable tasks
Are clear about process and the part they should play in releasing the potential and capacity of people to build solutions
Are aware of stress and pressure in themselves and in others and seek to build capacity to help cope in the times when resilience is needed
