Resilience Questionnaire & Consultation

A way to assess and develop a person’s resilience for their role and context.

Description

Understanding and strengthening resilience is vital for people working in demanding environments. 

Whether someone is starting a new role, managing ongoing pressures, or exposed to challenging material, resilience can be developed—and an important step is understanding their experiences and resources.

Our Resilience Questionnaire & Consultation is an evidence-based approach to understand and grow a person’s resilience. The individual answers a set of questions to assess various aspects of their resilience. They then meet with a psychological practitioner to discuss coping strategies and receive advice on reducing risks and cultivating resilience.

OPTIONS

✅ Basic: A 45 minute consultation

✅ Full: A 60 minute consultation in which the individual receives a short report outlining what we’ve discussed. With consent, this is sent to the organisation too. 

Please note: we do not provide a statement on an individual’s psychological fitness for travel.

Options

We offer three variations of this service, each tailored to different contexts:

New role and location: For individuals entering a new role and/or traveling to a new location. The questionnaire focuses on readiness for change, adjustment capacity, and support systems.

Current role review: For people already established in their roles who want a thorough review of their resilience. The questionnaire examines current workplace situations, ongoing stressors, and existing coping strategies.

For those exposed to traumatic material: e.g. distressing images, stories, or content, the questionnaire assesses the impact of this occupational hazard and strategies for managing cumulative exposure.

Testimonials

“Our staff travel to vulnerable communities worldwide, and these resilience questionnaires are an important early step in this process. The reviews help our team develop coping mechanisms, build resilience, and prepare for the challenges they might face. All this means they can do what they do to the best of their abilities.” Joan, Global HR Director at Relief International

“We highly recommend Thrive Worldwide and their psychological health services, which we have used in support of selection of new staff and in maintaining support for serving mission staff. We have found Thrive clinicians to be experienced in field settings, and they conduct sessions with care and an unhurried approach. Their reports help us clarify support needs and assess the suitability of candidates for service with us. We appreciate their focus on ‘thriving’ and would say we see this intention is demonstrated in their approach in working with us in the UK as well as our staff serving abroad.” – Mission Aviation Fellowship
