Course Overview

This is a bundle of 2 MLCs to be completed together:

 

1. Developing Resilience for Life

It is perfectly human to resist change, especially when it threatens your stability and comfort. While change is inevitable, you can control how you react to life-changing or stressful situations, and possibly affecting their outcomes. Thankfully, resilience is not a trait that people are simply born with. You can acquire it through changing your thought patterns, behaviors and actions.

 

In this course, you will learn the key principles of SUMO (Shut Up, Move On), accompanied by clear, actionable steps that you can apply to your life today to develop resilience in your personal and professional life.

 

2. The 12 Destructive Conflict Styles

Managing conflict is a great challenge in our Asian culture. Why? Because we dislike discussing it publicly as it may be too disconcerting, disgraceful or dishonourable. When we go through conflicts, especially problematic and intense ones, we feel frustrated, angry and even lost.

 

In this course, we will:

 

  1. Gain an overview of The 12 Conflict Styles;
  2. Identify our own dominant conflict styles; and
  3. Acquire skills to manage conflicts.
