What you'll learn

Forward-Facing™ Professional Resilience is the result of 20+ years of research and development in the area of burnout and compassion fatigue prevention. We have published nine empirical peer-reviewed studies that have demonstrated the skills in this workshop lessen the stress-related effects of caregiving and service work. Additionally, these same skills—when implemented in a displaced approach—enhance well-being, performance and professional quality of life. This course provides the participant with training in each of the five (5) resilience skills for the prevention and resolution of work-related stress while, simultaneously, enhancing professional performance.
