Three-Part Video Series Presented By Henry L. (Dick) Thompson, Ph.D.

Organizations experience stress every day. How well people within an organization respond to it is directly linked to how well they perform. That’s why building Organizational Resilience can help your organization move from being a good company to being a great one. The truth is that every organization can do better than it’s currently doing—if it builds resilience.

Building Organizational Resilience is important because without it a stressed-out organization will experience profitability loss in such critical areas as employee health and performance. In fact, stress costs US businesses as much as $300 billion a year—not including the cost of replacing leaders who burn out or derail due to job pressures.

In this three-part video series, Organizational Development Expert Henry L. (Dick) Thompson, Ph.D., discusses the three keys of building Organizational Resilience: People, Structure and Adaptation.

Part One—People

In this video, Dr. Thompson explains how leaders and organizations can build stress resilience by learning to operate within an optimal range of high-low stress and developing an ARSENAL™ of seven best practices that most influence a person’s ability to combat the negative effects of stress.

Part Two—Structure
Part Three—Adaptation
