Stress Management

Stress is a natural and necessary part of life. The ability to confront and release increased levels of stress is crucial in order to remain healthy and happy at work. Stress in the workplace has increased over the decades. Unresolved stress can negatively impact employee and team motivation, morale and performance. Typical root causes of work-related stress tend to be interpersonal conflict, customer demands, workload and job worries.

Personal management of stress is critical and not always easy. This workshop takes stress management to a deeper level of awareness so that participants understand their root cause of stress, the impact and what actions they can take to minimize and release it. The model and techniques used are simple and pragmatic in handling day-to-day and ongoing stress issues that may arise.
