           Bounce: Building Organizational Resilience

The Presenter – An international known educator and motivational speaker,
Robert B. Denhardt is a member of the faculty at Arizona State University.  He is
a former national president of the
American Society for Public
Administration
and the author of nineteen books on management,
leadership, and organizational change
.  

Why do  individuals, some groups, some organizations, and some communities
seem to bounce back from threat and adversity when others seem to struggle
endlessly?  Even more important, why do some individuals, groups,
organizations, and communities actually seem to thrive in the most difficult
times?  
Bounce: Building Organizational Resilience explores these
questions with an eye toward understanding how organizations can become more
creative and more agile not only in response to specific crises or disasters but in
the face of the continual rush of change and ambiguity that characterizes modern
life.

Bounce: Building Organizational Resilience is a highly interactive multi-
media workshop best suited for groups from twenty to eighty, but it can be
adapted to larger groups either as a keynote presentation or a modified
workshop.   The workshop encourages participants to examine the qualities of
individuals and organizations that support resilient responses, then to consider
the essential elements of shared leadership and adaptive followership that
characterize resilient organizations.  Participants are encouraged to develop
strategies for increasing resilience in their own organizations.
