1 Identify their strengths

One of the first steps to build resilience is to recognize and leverage your strengths. As a mentor, you can help your leaders identify their strengths by asking them to reflect on their past successes, achievements, and feedback. You can also use tools such as the StrengthsFinder assessment or the VIA Character Strengths survey to help them discover their core values and talents. By focusing on their strengths, your leaders can boost their confidence, motivation, and performance.

Identifying strengths require self-awareness. To do so, one needs lots of self-reflection and honesty towards themselves. "Know Thyself" is the only way forward to building a stronger leader.

Exemplify leadership and resilience in action. Allow others to observe your calm, considered and professional approach to resolving problems and continually seeking continuous improvement. The body of your work should be the model that allows you to inspire, motivate, and mentor those that look up to and emulate you. However, if the qualities you demonstrate reveal stress, fatigue, overwork, introversion, etc., your ability to mentor resilience will be compromised by doubt. Surgeon heal thyself first.

2 Challenge their mindset

Another way to build resilience is to challenge and reframe your mindset. As a mentor, you can help your leaders develop a growth mindset, which is the belief that they can learn and improve through effort and feedback. You can also help them overcome negative thinking patterns, such as catastrophizing, personalizing, or blaming, by encouraging them to look for evidence, alternative explanations, and positive aspects of the situation. By challenging their mindset, your leaders can increase their optimism, creativity, and problem-solving skills.

The key here is understanding that the only way you learn is through failure. If a new leader is intimidated by failure, with phrases like, “What if I fail?” Replace the word fail with ‘learn’ and see how it sounds.

3 Support their well-being

Resilience also depends on your physical, mental, and emotional well-being. As a mentor, you can help your leaders take care of themselves by promoting healthy habits, such as getting enough sleep, exercise, and nutrition. You can also help them manage their stress levels by teaching them relaxation techniques, such as breathing exercises, meditation, or mindfulness. You can also help them cope with their emotions by listening empathetically, validating their feelings, and offering constructive feedback. By supporting their well-being, your leaders can enhance their energy, focus, and mood.

There will always be more work to do. Make sure they plan their down time into their calendar before planning in ANY work activity. This will discourage taking in more work than you can handle. There’s a reason you are advised to put on your own oxygen mask before helping others.

4 Expand their network

Resilience is not only an individual skill, but also a social one. As a mentor, you can help your leaders expand their network by connecting them with other mentors, peers, or experts who can offer them advice, guidance, or support. You can also help them build trust and rapport with their team members, stakeholders, and customers by modeling effective communication, collaboration, and feedback skills. By expanding their network, your leaders can access more resources, opportunities, and perspectives.

5 Encourage their learning

Resilience is also a learning process that requires curiosity, experimentation, and reflection. As a mentor, you can help your leaders embrace learning by encouraging them to set specific, measurable, and achievable goals for their development. You can also help them seek feedback from multiple sources, such as self-assessment, peer review, or customer satisfaction. You can also help them learn from their mistakes by asking them to analyze what went wrong, what they learned, and what they would do differently next time. By encouraging their learning, your leaders can improve their skills, knowledge, and adaptability.

Every good leader must first acknowledge what they don't know and understand that you really shouldn't pretend you know everything. Sometimes you will need to trust your intuition and sometimes you'll need to know when to call in experts, learn and seek wise counsel. Knowing the difference is key to putting the project and team first, not your ego.

Situational awareness is a powerful tool to help leaders build their resilience. One of the most effective ways to do this is to ask the leader to describe a recent situation and define specific “trigger points” that caused them to feel threatened or stressed in the moment. Once defined, ask them to reframe the situation with actions they could have taken or statements they could have made that would have provided a more positive outcome. Maybe they could have asked questions to gain clarity or requested additional time to consider alternatives before responding. This type of reflection can help a leader learn from their past choices while also helping them recognize trigger points and how to proactively manage them in the future.
