Online Master Certificate in Resilience Training
Texas A&M Engineering and the Resilience Institute has partnered to offer a Master Certificate in Resilience Training that will help you individually and your team to thrive in these volatile uncertain complex and ambiguous times. The certificate program consists of four 2-hour weekly webinars. These live webinar presentations, tools and a research-based App will inspire participants to use resilience skills immediately while encouraging the development of positive habits that will support them in the professional and personal life.
We define resilience as the learned ability to Bounce, Grow, Connect and Flow. This framework incorporates physical, emotional and mental fitness. Our evidence-based program is practical and engaging. The integration of concepts from neuroscience, positive psychology and preventative medicine ensures that the journey is relevant to everyone, ranging from those experiencing anxiety and distress to those actively seeking to lift performance and optimize their lifestyle.
Together we'll explore practical techniques that will enable you to bounce through adversity, structure a lifestyle that supports resilience, develop emotional intelligence and improve focus. We'll also deconstruct the conditions for optimal performance, including situation agility and flow state. The first step in the journey is the Resilience Diagnostic - an interactive assessment that provides you with immediate feedback and resources for building your strengths and reducing your risk areas. You will receive an invitation for the Resilience App the week before the webinars commence.

Leading and Managing with Emotional Intelligence
Research shows that Emotional Intelligence can be twice as important as IQ and technical skills in determining who will become a top performer. Enhancing Emotional Intelligence (EI or EQ) skills can have a transformative impact on you as a leader – and can transform your other life roles as well. This workshop explores the concept of Emotional Intelligence and its application organizationally, as well as personally. We will discuss how Emotional Intelligence can be used for leadership development, personal development, career development, and workplace planning and building high-performance teams. Unlike IQ, EQ can be learned, developed and improved with well-designed development programs, feedback and coaching through a cluster of skills and competencies that has a great effect on leadership effectiveness.

Data-Driven Decision Making
In every aspect of our daily lives, from the way we work, shop, communicate or socialize, we are both consuming and creating vast amounts of data. In fact, “every two days we now create as much information as we did from the dawn of civilization up until 2003.” These daily activities create a trail of digitized data that is being stored, mined, and analyzed by firms, like yours, hoping to create valuable business intelligence.
Much of the promises of such data-driven policies have failed to materialize, however, because executives find it difficult to translate data into actionable strategies. Indeed, “Data are widely available; what is scarce is the ability to extract wisdom from them.”
Data-Driven Decision Making aims to bridge the gap by instilling in executives a general intuition for data-driven decision making and equipping leaders with the tools and techniques necessary to analyze large databases and use effective data visualization to gauge key metrics.
