Here is a snapshot of your current capacity for resilience.

Resilience Levels explained

How Your Score is evaluated

We use the analogy of climbing a mountain to describe the four levels of the resilience journey. Each stage in the climb represents a level.

36 -70 The Embattled Explorer – You are struggling without the tools

71 -110 The Base Camp Navigator – You have some strategies that you practice, but not enough to make you resilient

111 – 150 The Peak Performer – You have strategies that contribute to your effectiveness but you need to sharpen focus to raise your capacity

151 -180 The Summit Conqueror – You are using your strategies successfully and are likely very resilient

The Embattled Explorer (36-70)

You’re at the trailhead, ready to start your ascent. When faced with a daunting, large-scale challenge, you tend to feel overwhelmed by the size and difficulty of the mountain ahead. Although determined to push through the struggle, there are strong feelings of self-doubt as to whether you can make it to the summit.

Your backpack is too light and missing some essential tools. Without the actionable tools, you will continue to struggle to navigate uncertainty. You need to expand and refine your strategies.

Three suggestions for navigating challenges and obstacles:

  • Developing effective coping mechanisms
  • Build a support network
  • Practicing problem-solving skills

It’s time to build a Resilience Playbook so you can explore the path ahead with confidence. You will benefit from our actionable tools (Smart Moves) to hardwire resilience.

What’s next? 

Resilience is not something you have, it is something you DO.
It is important because it keeps us on track until we reach our goals, it allows us to deal with difficult situations, and it helps us to grow by encouraging us to look at the positives and to manage stress. Resilience is not about trying to carry on regardless of how we feel, and it’s not about being superhuman! Instead, it’s about understanding why we feel the way we do, and developing strategies to help us deal with situations more effectively.

Each question you answered connects to one of the Smart Moves in our Resilience Playbook.
