Every manager and professional needs to understand stress so
that they can both cope with their own stresses and relate
effectively and sympathetically to stressed colleagues.
ProSeminar's Managing Stress is designed to provide not only that
understanding, but also a ‘toolkit’ of preventative
techniques and personal strategies so that ‘normal stress’
doesn’t turn into ‘chronic stress’ and breakdown. Emphasis is
placed on a practical four-pronged attack – managing the
workload, managing emotions, dealing with change and managing the
work-life balance.
