7 Keys to Build Resilience in Your Business

7 Keys to Build Resilience in Your Business

Last year I became deeply interested in the topic of resilience. Partly because I found (like many others) my own personal resilience was being put to the test. After much work, I have come out the other side as a much more resilient and successful business owner. Recently, I was talking to a client about this topic and I realized that the need for resilience in our businesses is just as important as it is for us as individuals. So I have taken this material and have used it to develop 7 keys to build resilience in your business.

Linda Hoopes defines resilience as “Maintaining high levels of effectiveness and well-meaning while dealing with high levels of challenge and disruption”. Isn’t this exactly what we want our teams and companies to do? We need to remain high-performing even when times are tough. And times are tough, aren’t they?

Seven Keys to Build Resilience in Your Business

When building resilience in us individually, Hoopes describes “resilience muscles”, which we all have and use to develop our own personal resilience. I believe these same “muscles” apply in the business context as well.

  1. Develop a culture of positivity and appreciation
  2. Build Confidence in Your Team
  3. Set and maintain priorities
  4. Encourage creativity
  5. Break down silos and encourage connection
  6. Get some structure in your life
  7. Experiment with new ideas
