Stress Management

Managers, Team Leaders and Young Professionals

Online Course

We have five Stress Management courses available in this series that focus on stress for success, stress management techniques, resiliency, balancing home and career, preventing job burnout. Each course averages 15 minutes to complete with a post assessment included for each course. The Application Activity forms will allow the participant to apply the learnings in their own scenario and environment.

Stress is your response to a triggering stimulus called a “stressor.” Stressors could be demands made upon us or a need for change. How we respond to the stressor determines its positive or negative effects. In small doses, stress helps us to do our best. Some degree of stress is essential for getting things done. Like the tension on a piano wire, we can produce magnificent outcomes from the right amount of pressure. We will help you understand how to use stress positively and realize what signs will indicate effects and dangers of distress. Discover how to manage the long-term effects and how to cope with stress.

On completion of this course/article candidates will be able to:

• Summarize the positive and negative influences of stress.
• Explain how to turn stress into an energy that motivates success.
• Summarize what you can do daily to combat stress.
• Apply ten suggestions for balancing home and career.
