Description
In times of continuous pressure, stress and change, resilience is frequently referred to as being one of the key attributes of successful people. Resilience is expressed authoritatively as a positive ability to manage anxiety and changing circumstances with confidence and certainty - an ability to weather storms and cope with stress effectively.
Resilience means different things to different people as it is influenced by the situation and life's experiences. What is a major challenge for one person may be a very straightforward issue for another. Everyone approaches stressful situations in different ways, which has an influence on how they use their emotional resilience.
A resilient person is not arrogant or overly confident; quite the opposite: they have a clear sense of their own potential, capability, and ability to cope and achieve. Resilient people are good at stress management and in managing anxiety.
Resilient people are aware of situations, their own emotional reactions, and the behaviour of those around them. In order to manage feelings, it is essential to understand what is causing them and why. By remaining aware, resilient people can maintain control of a situation and think of new ways to tackle problems.
Resilience is a word that has become increasingly popular in recent times, but what does it mean to you and what does resilience look like?
True resilience can be developed and grown through focused individual coaching by examining what resilience means for the person, what challenges they are facing that require resilience, their mindset and what they need to do to manage themselves to take advantage of the opportunities available.
Please note: This stress management course is NOT for you if you are not prepared to be coached using a structured approach and then to apply your learning through a better understanding of your issues. Resilience and stress management cannot be developed by learning some techniques through just watching a few video lectures. The course is more about understanding your personal view of resilience and how you use your resilience to manage stress through being coached.
Rather than a generalised course providing facts and information, this stress management course enables you to be coached using a structured approach focusing on your mindset and your issues. Some learners really struggle with this concept (through their closed mindset) and I'm afraid that you won't get the best from the course unless you are prepared to work with this concept.
People with good levels of emotional resilience and emotional intelligence face challenges honestly, and find ways to move through or around obstacles. This stress management course challenges your mindset by exploring your emotional resilience through a series of images developed from interviews with a wide range of people of varying ages and experience in education and in business. It helps you to deeply scrutinise resilience from a variety of perspectives and viewpoints. You get the chance to inspect various aspects of resilience to determine your skills and qualities that help and hinder you in managing stress.

Instructor
Hi. I'm Robin Hills. I am an emotional intelligence coach, trainer and facilitator with over 40 years' business and commercial experience. I provide knowledge and skills that help people understand themselves and others better.
I have the most comprehensive range of on-line courses based on emotional intelligence in business - not only on Udemy but anywhere on the internet. I am not teaching any other types of course as I am a specialist in emotional intelligence and it is the focus of my business.
My courses go beyond the fundamental basics of emotional intelligence covering many aspects of how it can be applied in day to day work to lead, grow and develop people in ways that build authentic relationships.
My work takes me into small start-ups through to large corporate multi-nationals and into the Public Sector with financial institutions, government departments and health departments, as well as charities. This provides me a practical understanding of how emotional intelligence works and applied in the real world, enabling me to keep up to date with relevant issues.
I'm a registered practitioner with the British Psychological Society and an active member of the NW committee of the Association for Business Psychology.
My company is Ei4Change (Emotional Intelligence 4 Change) - recognised nationally and internationally as specialists with expertise in training, personal development and coaching focusing on emotional intelligence, positive psychology and neuroscience in the workplace. Our emotional intelligence programmes are accredited by the Institute of Leadership.
Over the last few years, I have delivered workshops at global emotional intelligence and neuroscience conferences. These have been held at Harvard University, at University of Manchester, in Cape Town, the Middle East and India.
I am the author of
- The Authority Guide to Emotional Resilience: Strategies to weather storms and manage stress in the workplace (published May 2016)
- The Authority Guide to Behaviour in Business: How to build successful and powerful relationships (published November 2017)
Both are available on Amazon.
Teaching emotional intelligence skills is a challenge at the best of times so these courses require you to take some ACTION and put into practice what you have learnt. I am here to support and guide you.
The learning process I use on Udemy is designed to work with you and the challenges you are facing today and tomorrow. It is practice-driven, evidence-based and directly helps you to improve your capacity to change.
Many of my Udemy courses offer you the chance to win a valuable prize as you work through the course.
All learners gain access to additional resources to develop emotional intelligence outside of Udemy, including a free book, podcasts and subscription to a digital magazine - ei-matters.
I look forward to empowering your emotional management.
