Resilience for Recessionary Times - How to Stay Grounded & Purposeful in Escalating Challenge

When pressure mounts, where does your focus go?

As economic pressure rises, most people become more risk-adverse and fall into short-term thinking. As recessionary conditions ripple through workplaces and communities, it’s easy to feel reactive, depleted, or isolated.

Resilient leadership takes a different path. It means staying emotionally agile, building strong relational support, and anchoring decisions in long-range purpose. These skills drive better choices, stronger teams, and a more sustainable response to challenge.

In this webinar, we’ll explore the emotional intelligence skills that fuel resilience in leadership and in life. You’ll discover how to navigate emotions without getting stuck in them, how to support others without over-carrying their weight, and how to return to your noble goals – even when the road ahead is uncertain.

Key Takeaways

✅ What drains resilience – and what restores it – in challenging times
✅ Tools to recognize emotions and link them to long-term meaning
✅ Practices for supporting your own and others’ resilience – individually and collectively

Who Should Join

This session is designed for business leaders, people managers, coaches, and change agents who are navigating high-pressure environments.
