We show in our resilience training why the issue of health promotion is becoming a top priority and how to activate the themes of resilience and health promotion in everyday management. Specifically, participants will receive opportunities for practical exercises, exchange and discussion on the topics of:
- How do we find more fortitude – without being rigid?
- How can we be flexible, agile and responsive, thereby getting work done without feeling rushed?
- How important is it for us to be well-connected and rooted through relationships?
- How can we rise again after the storm has subsided?
- What it means to regularly maintain a healthy work/life balance
Resilience Development Program for Leadership and Teams
The world of work is VUCA. It is unpredictable in many areas, increasingly uncertain, complex and ambiguous. Restructuring and change processes are no longer exceptions, instead they are a common experience. Resilience is a requirement for success.
Combating stress in the workplace has become an important part of preventive occupational health policy. In 2011 alone, there were 59.2 million hospital days due to mental stress in the workplace – this represents an increase of more than 80 percent in the last 15 years.
Become a Resilience Facilitator!
In the Bamboo Resilience-Circle-Training developed by Ella Gabriele Amann we describe key characteristics that help teams and their Leaders in dealing with crises, problems and stress. We use the bamboo resilience principle to cultivate more creativity and health at work. The bamboo has always stood for a successful strategy for dealing with turbulent times: Bending with the wind instead of breaking. The bamboo allows mobility and flexibility, at the same time, it is also deeply rooted, stable and steadfast.

Definition of Resilience
The term “resilience“ (meaning “elasticity“ or “vigour“; from the Latin resilire,meaning “rebound“) originates from physics and describes the ability of a material to change shape, then afterwards regain its original form. In general, resilience stands for asystem’s tolerance to disruption. The term was embraced by psychologists to describe the humanability to recover from adverse circumstances, failures, grievances and illnesses and to start afresh. Resilience stands for psychological robustness – or in other words, psychological elasticity.
Life crises are overcome and economic problems are conquered.
Similar to our immune system, which protects our body from illness, resilience refers to the immune system of our psyche or soul: it helps us to deal with stress, pressure and crises. A person’s or an organization’s resilience is, however, not regarded as a permanent state that has always existed and is retained forever, but rather as a life long learning process. Our resilience and thus our powers of resistance can vary from situation to situation and be stronger or weaker depending on the stage of life we happen to be in.
Your secret of success
Find you right leadership- & working style: Everyone has a different balance of energy. It can be ascertained on an individual basis within the framework of special interventions geared towards fostering resilience.

It determines the dynamics and balance of energy of different personality styles, recognizes what individual trainers’ strengths and weaknesses are, and finds out where they can extract the most energy for their work and private life.
