Finding strategies to manage your fears and become more resilient are vital for a long and successful career. In this session, we will unpack how you can begin to cultivate these skills, and what this means to you as an individual.
Why train with Tonic? We are a leading EDI training provider, offering courses designed specifically for the arts and creative environments. But crucially, each time you book a course with Tonic you also help support our work driving change across the industry. Win, win.
“After the sessions, I feel I have gained the tools to navigate my way through difficult situations in the industry. Being able to communicate assertively and stand by my morals is absolutely necessary practice not just for work, but life.”
In this session, students will focus on the importance of being able to identify fear, to acknowledge its impact on their lives, careers and wellbeing, and to gain tools with which to manage that fear. The session includes thought exercises and discussions centering on how to take an objective view of the industry, in order to support them to make reasoned choices about their conduct and careers moving forwards.
