News article

Discover science-backed methods to build hope, optimism, and resilience in your workplace

Hope Matters in the Workplace is a new evidence-based programme developed by RESILIO, a registered charity in Northern Ireland. It is based on research that suggests ‘hope is a teachable skill’.

Londonderry Chamber is hosting an interactive workshop on 16 February 2024 to introduce you to:

  • the science and evidence of hope
  • why it is worth investing in
  • how your workplace could grow and maintain hope, optimism and resilience during challenging times

The workshop will take place in the Londonderry Chamber of Commerce Boardroom, 16 Bishop Street, Derry~Londonderry, BT48 6PW.

It will explore how:

  • hope accounts for 14% of productivity in the workplace more than intelligence, optimism or self-efficacy
  • hopeful individuals are resilient and exhibit enthusiasm, involvement and commitment in the workplace
  • hope is considered an important contribution to the psychological well-being of individuals

The workshop organisers will also share information on an exciting new initiative to activate Derry and Strabane District Council to become the very first District of Hope.
