Case Study #1
Building Resilient Leaders:
A Multi-Cohort Success Story
From Spring 2023 through Fall 2024, we partnered with a leading educational institution to deliver our TPM Everyday Resilience for Leaders program. This comprehensive initiative reached across the organization, training four cohorts of leaders in mindfulness and resilience practices.
The Scale and Scope
Our engagement included 192 participants across four leadership cohorts, with each cohort completing a 4-module program that spanned 8-10 weeks. This extended timeframe allowed us to refine our approach and measure sustained impact across the organization.

Participant Testimonials
"This should be a mandatory training for all leaders. The impacts would be profound if everyone applied these practices daily."
Participant - Spring 2024
"I've taken courses like this in the past but was never able to take the next step of implementing change into my day/life. I have walked away with many tools that I have already been implementing and feeling the difference!"
Participant - Summer 2024
"I am less drained at the end of each day, having taken time to set daily intentions, unhook from challenging emotions, and savor the positive experiences. It is a night and day difference."
Participant - Fall 2023
"Being able to utilize these skills for myself and share the information with my team [has been invaluable]. The scaffolding of the course over multiple weeks gave me a chance to practice and reflect on what I learned. I went through this class with peer leaders in the organization and we are now using the same language during our daily routine.
Participant - Spring 2023
"Higher education has never been in a more stressful period of volatility and change. We asked Pause to do resiliency and stress relief work with my leadership team, with our leadership development program, and also more general staff sessions.
It has been one of our best investments. Our people are better equipped to handle the pressures of the work, feel more engaged, and I believe we will see stronger retention for those who completed a Pause training. It feels like we can breathe again. We knew Pause worked with some of the highest performing companies in the US. Now we know why."

Our Measurement Approach
To ensure rigorous assessment of the program's impact, we implemented a comprehensive evaluation framework:
-
Participants completed both pre-program and post-program assessments, giving us clear before-and-after measurements
-
Our 27-point assessment framework examined specific resilience indicators across four key domains: Stress Relief, Mindful Awareness, Emotional Intelligence, and Resiliency
-
Participants rated their capabilities on a 10-point scale, providing quantifiable data on their progress
-
We collected qualitative feedback through open-ended responses, capturing the nuanced impact of the program
-
Our longitudinal tracking across multiple cohorts allowed us to validate the consistency of our results
