PRESENT CONTINUOUS
01. (UnB-DF–2018) It is difficult to talk about people, power, and politics without discussing citizenship and democracy. These are
highly debated concepts. But some reflection on what they mean is vital for planning and providing effective public support.
These concepts help us define what kind of political system we are striving for, and the roles, rights, and responsibilities of all
the participants.
The many changes occurring around the globe are stretching and reshaping forms of social organization and decision-
making processes. To meet the challenges of the times, advocates and organizers may find it helpful to revisit the meaning
of democracy and citizenship in their work. Throughout the world, many countries have undergone exciting reforms that have
opened up political processes to people. In countries such as the Philippines and South Africa, authoritarian governments
have been brought down. In others, governments have taken significant measures to include women and other marginalized
groups in public life.

5 ways to boost your resilience at work
Since the pace and intensity of contemporary work
culture are not likely to change, it’s more important than
ever to build resilience skills to effectively navigate your
worklife. While working as a CEO, I’ve seen over and
over again that the most resilient individuals aren’t the

and thrive1 because of it.
Resilience is built by attitudes, behaviors and social
supports that can be adopted and cultivated by anyone.
Factors that lead to resilience include optimism and the
ability to stay balanced and manage difficult emotions.
To build resilience skills at work it’s important to
understand and manage some of the factors that cause
us to feel so stressed at work. Being hyperconnected and
responsive to work anytime, anywhere, can be extremely
onerous.

The current and rising levels of stress in the workplace
should be cause for concern, as there is a direct and
adverse relationship between negative stress, wellness
and productivity. Stress that causes us to experience
difficulty or unhealthy strain is a major cause for concern
as it directly and adversely affects personal and business
success. Here are some tips on how to develop resilience
and stay motivated:
Exercise mindfulness – Turn your attention to
mental training practices associated with mindfulness to
improve your judgment accuracy and problem solving,
job performance and cognitive flexibility.
Compartmentalize your cognitive load – Create
dedicated times in the day to do specific work-related
activities and not others.
Take detachment2 breaks – Step away from work
for even a few minutes to reset energy and attention.
Balancing work activity can promote greater energy,
mental clarity, creativity and focus.
Develop mental agility – Decenter stress: step back,
reflect, shift perspectives, create options and choose wisely.
Cultivate compassion – Create positive work
relationships, increase cooperation and collaboration,
happiness and well-being to decrease stress.
