The manager’s guide to managing stress

We all want our teams to experience a happy, productive and motivated office life – yet how many of us actually know how to go about ensuring that desirable state?

A manager must be confident of his or her ability to promote wellbeing at work and recognise when stress is having a negative effect in their environment.  On a technical level you need to understand the policies, processes and wellbeing resources of their organisation – and on top of that, the more subtle art of providing basic emotional support and assistance where needed.

Your presence as the first line of support to your employees will determine how effectively organisational objectives are met. Without adequate training, it can be a challenge to overcome the barriers to performance that stress and poor mental health can create.

This is where The Stress Management Society can provide expert help and training. In our powerful and engaging one day workshop ‘Managers Managing Stress’, participants will explore how to:

• understand and recognise stress in ourselves and others
• maintain a healthy work-life balance
• manage distractions/disruptions
• deliver effective management
• use practical coping strategies
• create a culture of wellbeing using The Stress Management Society’s 7E’s framework
• continue their learning journey with our 30 Day Challenge

Our Managers Managing Stress workshop is endorsed by the Institute of Leadership & Management (ILM). Upon taking part in the training, each participant can opt to complete the workplace assessment and gain an ILM certificate..
