Overview
The most important factor employers look for in recruits is attitude, which ranks ahead even of literacy and numeracy according to the CBI Annual survey of employer 2015. Mental Toughness describes the mind-set or ‘attitude’ that every person adopts in everything they do.

Development of mental toughness and a positive mindset impacts on performance, wellbeing and behaviour and is therefore a key element to focus on in personal development.
Objectives
The first webinar in this series will look at this important area and will examine briefly:
  • What is mental toughness, mindset and resilience?
  • How can I assess mental toughness and what it means for employers and apprentices alike?
  • Why it is probably the most important aspect of people and organisation development today?
  • How can I develop mine and others mental toughness?
Who Should Attend
Any organisation (any sector) considering taking on an apprentice.
