Most CEOs would pick the following factors as crucial to their organisations sustainability: strong profits, optimal productivity, superior client service, motivated workforce, retention of top performers, increased staff accountability and reduced absenteeism. Most staff are seeking improved quality of life and meaningful work. Lack of resilience and ill-health jeopardizes ALL of the above-mentioned needs, irrespective of whether it emanates from a business or a staff members perspective.

It is based on a multi-dimentional, proactive coping approach that accommodates participant’s unique contexts. The approach builds on the synergy (hence the name Synergistix resilience) between these quadrants:
MENTAL | PHYSICAL | SOCIO-EMOTIONAL | SPIRITUAL
These quadrants are underpinned by the application of 4 key mindsets and 12 practical behaviours as shown in the diagram that follows. In doing so participants have a variety of resources they can draw on to ensure resilience, which creates flexibility and heightens probability of success.
The aim is to create an integrated life, not necessarily the mythically perfectly balanced life. The key is actually that oscillation needs to occur e.g. exercise and rest; stimulus and reflection etc. in each of the 4 quadrants.
Fitness is striven for in all four quadrants through sustained effort and repetition. This is NOT a quick fix programme. Measurement is used to track baseline status and movement over time. With regards to spiritual fitness, it alludes to your purpose in life, not a specific religious orientation which is a deeply personal choice.
