What You’ll Learn
The list of stress factors in today’s world grows longer every day. People react differently to living in this pressure cooker. Some become aggressive while others become passive or just shut down altogether. Regardless of the reaction, the results are the same – personal and organizational productivity grind to a halt, creativity dies, and momentum vanishes.
In this course, we will discuss the various sources of workplace stress, our reactions to these situations, and what we can do to change our habits to manage stress more effectively. We will focus on three key areas:
- Time
- Organization
- Attitude Control
In each area, you will be presented with a number of tools and techniques to take more control and reduce stress levels. Along with developing a plan for yourself, you will be motivated to make commitments to develop new habits.
With a solid understanding of the causes of stress and how to combat it, you can influence your attitude and strengthen the behaviors that will help you achieve your desired results.

Why You Want To Learn It
It is time to do something about the destructive forces of stress in our life!
For most people, it is hard to separate work life and personal life. Stress at work can cause stress at home, and conversely, stress at home can cause stress at work. Our work lives can take over and it is important to find satisfaction in many areas of our life. By focusing on a more holistic approach to life areas that can help achieve more work / life balance, stress can be put into perspective. This course wraps up with an activity to do just that.
