Farewell to Sarah

Our recent public ‘Building Resilience’ event was also our last chance to work with our friend and colleague Sarah Willis before she moved on to pastures new. The event was a big success, with great feedback and was a fitting end to Sarah’s time at circleindigo.
One of Sarah’s central passions and themes in her life and work is about enabling and developing young people. So she is very happy to share the news that she is going to be the National Lead on a programme called Positive Futures for Catch 22 www.catch-22.org.uk a charity that enables young people to develop their confidence, skills and potential. She will carry her great experiences from circleindigo into her new role and will remain connected to the community of circleindigo clients and friends.
We wish Sarah every success in this new chapter of her working life, focussing on the area she has always had immense passion for.

Building Resilience Event

Based on the research ‘Being Resilient’, carried out with the University of Westminster, Business Psychology Centre (BPC) Business Psychology MSc programme we recently ran a public ‘Building Resilience’ event called ‘Resilience - Push Pause: Time to Connect, Learn, Think & Adapt’ at our friends space, headrooms (www.headroomsip.com).

With 20 participants from cross-sector and cross-industry organisations we facilitated a half-day event which was an interactive and participative exploration through circleindigo’s 5 key characteristics of resilience model (based on the research above). For each characteristic we ran a practical exercise designed to reinforce learning and extend competence and to get each participant to interact both with the model and one another: building resilience one characteristic at a time.

We had an enjoyable afternoon with our participants in the headrooms space, learnt lots and made new friends and connections, as did others. For more information on our Building Resilience work e-Mail us at info@circleindigo.com.
