The Resilient Leader’s Role

  ‘…The demanding task of mobilizing people to confront
their predicament and solve their most pressing problems.’
                             Dean Williams, Real Leadership
                        Harvard Kennedy School of Government




                   Adaptive vs Technical Challenges
      Ambiguity
      Risk
      Challenging conversations
      Use of self as instrument
      Style required in one situation can be disastrous in another

       All rights reserved, Linda K. Bidlack Coaching & Consulting, lindakbidlack@gmail.com
Resilient Behavior
1.   Stay calm under pressure
2.   Delay impulsive emotional reactions
3.   Accurately identify the cause of adversity
4.   Believe you can solve the problem at hand
5.   Stay positive yet realistic in outlook
6.   Read other’s non-verbal clues
7.   Take on new challenges after recovering from a
     setback
                                                          The Resilience Factor, Reivich & Shatte




     All rights reserved, Linda K. Bidlack Coaching & Consulting, lindakbidlack@gmail.com
Staying calm under pressure
Presence
• Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS)
    •   Fires up the edgy, vigilant, irritable self
    •   Intended to last just 5-60 minutes
• The Para-Sympathetic Nervous System (PNS)
    •    Puts out the fire




 All rights reserved, Linda K. Bidlack Coaching & Consulting, lindakbidlack@gmail.com.
The Resilient Leader
              It’s not the hours you work
                that determine the value
                        you create.
                  Tony Schwartz, The Energy Project
