When someone sees things differently, how do we respond? Can we stay interested in their perspective, especially when we feel strongly about our own?

CoResolve helps leaders notice their own responses and work with the different views in a group. This includes inviting disagreement, exploring tension and being willing to learn from what emerges.

As we work through these differences, we can develop a fuller understanding of the issue and make more informed decisions together.

If your team would benefit from working more openly with tension and disagreement, reach out to us at [email protected] to explore how CoResolve could help.

Early in a career, purpose is often strong but easy to knock off course when work gets overloaded or uncertain. The Resilience Institute’s 2025 Global Report suggests that being part of a group that keeps meaning in view when stress rises can help people build the composure that experience usually brings.

If you lead or support early-career colleagues, it may be worth asking where they find that kind of community, and whether the team itself is one.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in Jersey on Tuesday for our first Friends of Shine community building event, and to .talbot of Write at the Shoreline for guiding us through an evening of journaling with art.

We know that journaling can support mental health and wellbeing, particularly by helping people process emotions, manage stress, increase self-awareness and reflect on positive experiences. Elizabeth guided us through our own journaling with helpful prompts and an invitation to decorate our journals. It was a pleasure to spend time with a small group, pen in hand, pausing to reflect on the relationship we have with ourselves.

All of this was set against the backdrop of the exhibition of Kay Le Seelleur Ara ( ), whose quirky and imaginative paintings provided a stimulating setting for our exploration of journaling for wellbeing. We also had the opportunity to view the exhibition together.

Many of us learned to push through on our own. That makes loneliness at work easy to miss: someone can be busy, capable and surrounded by colleagues, and still feel alone in the work.

In the Resilience Institute's 2025 Global Report (n = 8,419), the ability to manage loneliness was one of eight emotional skills that most separated Resilient professionals from Challenged ones. Each gap exceeded 19 percentage points. The data compares groups at a single point in time, so it can't show whether managing loneliness builds resilience or follows from it.

For teams, the report recommends a purposeful conversation with each person every week, and frequent expressions of empathy and appreciation.

This month we're looking at how connection is built and kept at work and beyond it. What helps you feel less alone in your work?

Most of us can name a colleague who was coping well enough, until they weren't. Looking back, the signs were often small: fewer conversations, less interest in the work.

The Resilience Institute's 2025 Global Report surveyed 8,419 professionals. Among the emotional factors that distinguished resilient people from those it calls "Challenged" (functioning day to day, but fragile under pressure) were loneliness and apathy. The report is descriptive, so it can't tell us which comes first.

Its practical suggestions are modest: a meaningful one-to-one conversation each week, and regular, genuine appreciation. What would a one-to-one look like in your team if it had no status update in it?

September has been all about rhythm & recovery, and the practices that nurture resilience.

We covered the full Recovery & Rhythm series:
#7, Schedule 5 to 10 minute breaks every 90 minutes
#8, Use movement or a brief walk to reset between meetings
#9, Create a daily wind-down ritual

The thread running through all of it is the same: rest is not the opposite of performance. It's what makes performance sustainable.

Stay tuned for next month’s series, where we'll look at how to build resilience through connection & community.
