Managing Stress in the Workplace
Manage for a better work-life balance
Enhanced team performance and improved work-life balance rely largely on proper management of stress. Leaders, managers and supervisors must cultivate an environment of communication and trust to promote awareness, adaptation, communication climate, personal accountability, and resilience. We'll challenge the work-life balance concept and discuss factors that influence wellness and organizational goal achievement; we'll also practice evidence-based stress management tactics grounded in organizational behavior and neuroscience research while creating an action plan for both personal and professional development.
