HARDINESS -
RESILIENCE 2.0
Why your organisation needs hardy leaders and employees:
HARDINESS is more than resilience. It’s the foundation of sustainable peak performance in high-pressure environments - and it can be developed - with Dr. Paul’s proven intervention.
HARDINESS is described by academics as ‘the courage to grow from stress’. Resilience is an outcome, but it doesn’t tell us how to get there. Hardiness does.
Unlike generic resilience or wellbeing programs, Dr. Paul's approach is backed by peer-reviewed research showing measurable improvements in workplace Hardiness, mood, resilience and cognitive function.

Dr. Paul in action
Corporate burnout, fatigue and staff turnover are destroying potential and impacting individuals and businesses. Talent is under-utilised, or leaving the workforce. Hardiness has been shown to enhance leadership effectiveness and adaptability, increase employe engagement, and reduce presenteeism, burnout and staff turnover.

The HARDINESS EFFECT
Master yourself instead of ‘managing’ stress and ‘making do’. Like a sword forged in the fire, challenges can be used to refine you into a warrior of the mind. Life is hard, but we don't need coddled minds. We need targeted action.
That’s where hardiness comes in - hardy people suffer less burnout, deal better with stress, have better health and immune responses to stress.
Paul is the only provider in Australia who has a program proven to enhance hardiness - as well as mood, resilience and even cognitive function of employees.
So don’t settle for mediocre - give your people the tools to enhance their hardiness and grow from stress.
