Do you have the mental toughness to meet your challenges?

Not a week goes by without mental toughness being referred to by coaches, athletes, managers, employers and employees as a characteristic responsible for performance. Or lacking and influential in failing to overcome performance barriers.

Mental Toughness also appears to be a term that the masses and in particular the media appear to be comfortable with, as an all encompassing factor accounting for the psychological aspects of performing in a number of areas, including business and sport.

When we hear about the mental toughness required by Andy Murray in order to achieve an elusive grand slam title, or by the Ryder Cup team in overcoming the Americans at Celtic Manor, or by seemingly any member of the England Football team to overcome their personal issues, I think we all understand what is meant, even if it is not clearly defined.

Is this the same mental toughness, however, that is required by business owners facing the economic downturn? or of individuals facing the challenge of redundancy? or of preparing for an important interview? Is it the same mental toughness that political leaders, nurses, doctors and members of the emergency services clearly possess?

Are the dimensions of mental toughness characteristics that all these individuals are born with, or are they skills to be learnt?

The great news is... mental toughness can be developed! As well as offering coaching to individuals within sport and business we provide training to coaches and managers that enable them to maintain ongoing support and assessment of their teams. This ensures peak psychological preparation for the challenges that face them, wherever they may be.

We make use of the very latest and innovative training tools that have repeatedly demonstrated the successful identification of an individuals’ mental toughness and then deliver tailored interventions that target aspects of mental toughness including confidence, commitment, challenge and control.

If you are a coach, manager or responsible for training and the improvement of performance, or just simply want to work on and develop your mental toughness, we can give you the skills and tools necessary to assess and train this key aspect.
