Stress Management

FMI Course number: PEX1

Duration
1 day

Overview of Course

Stress may arise in a performance driven work environment and can affect people's health and wellbeing and also can make their work less effective.
The effective management of stress is a useful and sometimes essential part of the "toolkit" of managers and team members.

It is based upon three fundamental strategies for stress management:

The first strategy is to reduce the external stressors. This focuses on using approaches such as reorganising work, improving planning, more effective time management and creating better workplace relationships. This course helps you identify and manage the key stressors in your workplace.

The second strategy is to reduce impact of the stressors on the self. This involves looking at the way we think about work and the course uses the findings of cognitive psychological research and emotional intelligence to help us develop ways to reduce the impact of stressors.

The third strategy is to reduce the internal effects of stress. This can be done through enhancing our personal fitness and health in both body and mind. Techniques include increasing fitness through exercise and sport and health through diet and regular medical checkups. We also look at results of relaxation focused tactics such as yoga and meditation as well as basic relaxation exercises.

This is a very practical based course that will give both immediate and long term benefit to managing stress at work and so help improve both individuals and the organisation they work for.
