Abstract: Team resilience is necessary for organizations to maintain stability and adapt to changing dynamics in the world. Organizational teams were altered dramatically by the global pandemic. Working as cohesive units became a struggle on multiple levels – fueled by the need for social distancing, safety precautions, and the stress caused by the rapid changes and health concerns. Even the most established organizations found themselves struggling to create new ways to meet production and efficiency goals. A “new normal” began to form, and the workforce changed. Labor shortages related to organizational changes, childcare needs, health concerns, and shifts in professional interests led to a need for organizations to address retention, work-life balance, and recruitment in different ways. Resilience became more important than ever to keep organizations afloat. Team Resilience provides a framework for building and maintaining cohesive teams within organizations. Reinforcing resilient behaviors within teams fosters positive morale, increased efficiency, increased satisfaction, work-life balance, and reduced turnover. This presentation will begin with defining team resilience components and secondary traumatic stress symptoms for professionals. Original research regarding team resilience will be presented. Participants will leave this workshop with knowledge and practical methods to reinforce resilient behaviors within the organizational team on multiple levels.
