From the VUCA to BANI era, we need professionals with greater emotional stability—individuals who can maintain a positive mindset even under immense pressure and in the face of uncertainty. This ability can be described in simpler terms as being "resilient," "tough," or "not easily broken." This “emotional management course” aims to help participants upgrade their emotional “operating system,” enabling emotions and rationality to work together efficiently. It also guides students through deep self-exploration and awareness, helping them to break free from emotional "sticking points" and enhance their ability to cope with pressure, all while maintaining a positive mindset in uncertain environments.

The "zero-cost revelations" on social media present significant public opinion risks for companies. In corporate public opinion crises, one major category involves HR-related issues. Campus recruitment, layoffs, compensation, workplace injuries—each term is a key to negative traffic on social media platforms. As a generation raised with smartphones enters the workforce, they are adept at using social media, familiar with techniques to gain influence, and have a strong desire for self-expression. For companies, preventing all HR-related content from appearing online has become nearly impossible.
Traditionally, public opinion risks stemmed from business and communications departments, but now, HR has become a high-risk department for public opinion. Therefore, it is essential for HR to enhance its crisis prevention awareness, understand related risks, and take measures to prevent issues from arising.社交媒体上的“0成本爆料”带给企业巨大的舆情隐患。企业舆情危机中有一个重要分类就是HR有关舆情。校招、裁员、赔偿、工伤……每一个词都是平台上的负面流量密码。手机上长大的一代人进入劳动力市场，他们善于使用社交媒体，熟悉流量技巧，也有很强的表达欲望。对企业来说，想让企业HR有关的内容彻底不出现在网上，已经是不可能的。
传统上，舆情风险来自于业务和沟通相关部门，但是现在，HR已经是舆情高危部门，因此，HR有必要提高危机防范意识，了解相关的舆情风险，并做好日常言行的防范。
