Managing yourself Resilience Wellbeing

About Resilient Mindset

It is likely that we will all, at some stage, experience things in our life or career that will throw us off course. How can we react positively when these challenges arrive?

Ten years ago, just as the company Emma Lawton was working for was redesigning the Parkinson’s UK website, she was diagnosed with the condition herself. She was aged just 29. It could have ruined her life. Instead, she quit her job, started her own business, wrote a book and shared her story to inspire others with the condition.

Emma will offer inspirational insights into the power of a positive mental attitude. You’ll find out how to cope with adversity, be super-resilient and bring your best self to work.

About Emma Lawton

Emma Lawton was diagnosed with Parkinson’s 10 years ago at the age of 29. In January 2023 she had major surgery to lift her neck which had dropped and left her looking at her shoes. In 2019 Emma did something new every day to shine a light on the importance of investing in our own development and happiness. Emma was KTN Woman in Innovation 2023, awarded an Honorary Doctorate by the University of Greenwich in 2022 and has been dubbed ‘One to Watch’ by Wired Magazine. Emma is an author, stand-up comedian, writer, blogger and social entrepreneur.

Huge thanks for yesterday's session, I’m still buzzing from it and reflecting on how impactful it was for a virtual event.
