His key message was that resilience was a trainable capacity not a fixed personality trait and that organizations could help build resilience by paying attention to biological psychological social and environmental engines of personal resilience.<span class=\"inline-flex\" aria-label=\"Workplace-Wellbeing-in-Crisis.-Slide-Deck-3.pdf\" data-state=\"closed\">\u200b Furthermore, <\/span><\/strong><strong>the biological engine included sleep, movement and recovery while the psychological engine involved mindset and emotional regulation.
