Is resilience important in changing times?
The lively discussion saw both men and women engaging from lots of different professions and industries come together to discuss their best advice and experiences on resilience. The purpose of this weeks Twitter Chat was for our Rising Star shortlist, judges and members to share their advice, opinions and experience on role models. We would like to take this opportunity to extend our thanks to all who took part.
We will be holding more Twitter chats soon and the schedule will be released in due course.
There were so many top tips during the tweet chat, here are just a few from our wonderful ladies and gentlemen. You can see the full conversation by looking up #watctop100 on Twitter or by following @WATC_Updates.

At the end of the discussion, we held a 24 hour poll on our account to find out people’s feelings on resilience. These are the results from the poll.
