NewswireTODAY - /newswire/ - Shrewsbury, Shropshire, United Kingdom, 2013/01/31 - **West Midlands, UK, 14th January 2013• - Announcing a new Workshop on Resilience for West Midlands Businesses presented by The Resilience Team, 28th February 2013 at Ironbridge, Shropshire, UK.

Businesses are facing a significant period of tough trading conditions unprecedented in the experience of the current generation of business managers and HR professionals.
A resilient business will be more agile, less prone to underperformance and be a much better long term investment and yet very few managers have any familiarity with the tools and techniques that promote resilience.

Resilience is:

• the ability to Survive pressures and adversity that might otherwise threaten mental and physical wellbeing of individuals and the viability of organisations;
• to Revive after a sudden or drawn out crisis that depletes resources and undermines drive and enthusiasm;
• and to Thrive in any environment and make significant progress towards goals.

There are two main aspects to resilience the strength and determination that make it hard to deflect organisations, teams and individuals from their chosen course, and the ability to recover from serious adversity.

There are many ways to map or model an organisation. The familiar organisation chart shows how responsibilities are mapped, an IT architecture diagram shows the IT spine of a company, a process flow map shows how things get done.

Mapping business resilience is like looking for heat losses from a building using a thermal camera the mapping of an organisation via an org chart or process map shows what is intended, but looking through the right lens highlights the unintentional. This is true in Health and Safety, Legal Compliance and particularly in Resilience.
This workshop, aimed at senior and middle managers and HR professionals, will equip delegates with tools and the knowledge to look at their own organisations in a new way, and either do a top-to-bottom audit or simply to prioritise the weak spots they find, and to implement appropriate steps to improve resilience, even on a meagre budget.
The Resilience Team has been formed by three local freelance consultants in order to bring this much needed focus to the survival, recovery and long term profitability of businesses of all types.

Media enquirers are welcome. The team offer telephone and Skype interviews, and experienced studio guests for radio and television.
