Speaker: Doug Strycharczyk
Date: October 08, 2025
Time: 20:00-21:00 SGT

In today’s fast-changing world, resilience alone is no longer enough. Leaders and professionals are expected not just to bounce back—but to move forward with courage, belief in your abilities to deal with what lies ahead and an openness to learning.  That’s where Mental Toughness makes the difference.
While resilience helps individuals and organisations survive adversity, Mental Toughness combines both resilience and optimism to support growth, wellbeing, and high performance. In this session, you’ll learn how these two distinct but connected qualities work together—and why confusing them can lead to missed outcomes.
Join Doug Strycharczyk, one of the world’s leading authorities on Mental Toughness, as he introduces a practical and evidence-based framework that goes beyond recovery. Discover the 8-factor model behind Mental Toughness and how it influences performance, wellbeing, agility, and aspirations.
