This is a personal post from Julie as this topic sits in really close to why she does all that she does…
We have this language around resilience that I think hurts us. It becomes about the individual, being tougher, getting over things, ‘pushing through’.
For this reason, I’ve personally had a dreadful relationship with the word, until I found @Kathryn McEwen’s Resilience at Work framework. It makes sense as an individual, but also from the team perspective…
Because …
The cure for burnout is not self-care, it is all of us caring for each other. Drs Emily and Amelia Nagoski
Our purpose of this conversation was to unpack the ideas around Individual Resilience and Team Resilience. To go deep to understand the definitions, the differences, and how they are both important in the workplace.
Workplaces need Individual and Team Resilience to thrive and to be able to come together to work through challenging times.
What I need you to really know to be true, is at the HEART of team and organisational resilience is MUTUAL care and support BALANCED with accountability. This, my dear colleagues, is how we need to centre everything that we do within ourselves (boundary setting), our teams (for high care and performance), and organisations (psychologically safe and a robust workplace).
