On November 13, 2025, close to 40 participants from Danone Singapore office joined a session focused on Unlocking Mental Toughness – Becoming Your Best Self in the Age of Change.
Participant reflections captured the spirit of the event:
- “Love it! I’ve always wondered why people react so differently to the same situation.”
- “The session was very good, very interesting.”
- “We are who we are — mentally tough or mentally sensitive. It’s not good or bad.”
The morning was filled with learning, curiosity, and fresh perspectives, exploring how mental toughness shapes the way individuals respond to change, pressure, and uncertainty.
This session combined insights from mental toughness science with practical leadership applications, offering participants valuable tools to strengthen resilience and performance.
At ECHO Leadership, we continue to support leaders and teams in building stronger cultures through:
- Team workshops
- Leadership development programs
- Corporate learning sessions on mental toughness, resilience, and mindful performance
If your organisation is looking to elevate its people capability, we’d love to partner with you.
