Helping You Develop Resiliency

Helping You Build Inner Strength

Our single-minded aim is to enable you to be more resilient.

Resiliency helps leaders create space in their lives to cultivate self-awareness and empathy for those they lead. We seek to enable leaders to be creative, consistent and trustworthy in a way that inspires others and gives them room to achieve.

Resiliency also provides leadership support for NZ based Not For Profits, educational institutions and private enterprises.

Resiliency is recognised for its servant based approach. We have a strong commitment to enabling leaders to serve their organisations both by building capacity in their staff and by reaching their own personal goals.

Resiliency provides a range of support tools from coaching to spiritual direction; from senior leader appraisal to board review; from online surveys to one on one interviews; from coaching training to staff supervision; and equipping senior leaders to create an agreed set of values and culture for their organisation.

What is coaching?
How is coaching different from other one on one disciplines?

Coaching
  • Coaching employs questions designed to enable and help you to create and achieve goals pertaining to your work and life. 
Supervision
  • Supervision helps you reflect regularly and in depth on your work in order to improve your relationships, wellbeing and personal development.
Pastoral Counselling
  • Pastoral Counselling helps a person unpack issues that are disempowering them in their work, life and relationships.
Spiritual Direction
  • Spiritual direction is the practice of sharing your spiritual journey with a companion who listens and enables you to recognise God in the ordinariness of your everyday life.

Resiliency Values:

Interact Respectfully;

Build Relationships; Provoke Thought;

Serve Others.

Resiliency aspires to be a fulcrum point for change in NZ society. We engage with leaders of a diverse range of NZ based organisations in the not for profit, education and private sectors. We contribute to change by helping leaders become recognised as those who serve others rather than those whom others serve.

One of Resilient Leadership’s core beliefs is that all humans are ‘one people’, no matter their background, ethnicity or social status.  Our goal is to treat all people the same – with dignity and respect as we encourage and equip them to be the best that they can be.
