The PsyCap Mindset™ for Resilience
Resilience is a capability that can be developed, measured and managed. For organizations, investing in the positive psychological capital of employees can facilitate performance improvement. Building The PsyCap Mindset™ involves interventions that support and develop self-trust, objective reasoning, perseverance and possibility thinking. These capabilities interact synergistically and promote overall well-being and mental health for both the individual and in turn the organization. In this presentation, Dr. Rumeet will share the four components of psychological capital that lead to resilience and explore strategies to enhance it on a personal and professional level in order to develop a competitive advantage.

Emotional Resilience for Professionals
Dr. Rumeet helps professionals develop their emotional intelligence (EI) by examining the 5 composite scales and 15 subscales of EI. This presentation explores the 3 U’s, (understanding self, understanding others and understanding context), and focuses on the impact of our emotions related to how we act, react and interact. Dr. Rumeet will interpret and illustrate how each competency impacts your role as a professional and shares specific strategies that can be integrated in the workplace to improve mental health, foster the development of emotional intelligence and strengthen resiliency.

Future-Ready Skills Development
Preparing to succeed in a future that is uncertain and ever-changing requires us to question the status quo. It requires a shift from asking “what do you want to be when you grow up?” to “who do you want to become?”. Dell Technologies recently reported that 85% of jobs that will exist in 2030 have not yet been invented. This presentation focuses on who we can prepare our children and students for the future and the skills they will need to succeed. A picture book titled ‘Who Do I Want To Become?’ is available as supplementary material for this talk.

The Tallest Poppy: Solving the Silent Systemic Syndrome
A recent survey found an overwhelming number of women have experienced Tall Poppy Syndrome (TPS) in the workplace. Tall Poppy Syndrome, a term that was popularized in Australia, occurs when people are attacked, resented, disliked, criticized or cut down because of their achievements or success. The result of this silent systemic syndrome has a direct impact on everything from engagement and productivity to retention. This presentation examines the eye-opening results of a large study led by Dr. Rumeet and focuses on understanding how TPS impacts the workplace, and explores strategies to prevent TPS, eliminate distrust and strengthen organizational culture.
