“Overcoming Work Overload - And Bringing Joy Back Into Your Life”

The first modules give you an accurate, realistic understanding of what stress is, and help you pin-point the sources of stress in your life. You can then quickly and efficiently target the most important sources of stress for early attention.

Next, you learn how to manage the intense stress that can come with work overload. You’ll learn to distinguish the essential tasks that you must complete from the distractions that contribute to overload. You’ll also discover ways to balance conflicting time demands, correct job design flaws, develop focus and efficiency and, through this, regain control of your workload. You’ll then learn how to identify the inconsistencies and structural problems within your job that can cause enormous stress. Once identified, these become much easier to resolve.

 

A side effect of these modules is that you learn to be more effective and productive in your work – this can only enhance your career. With your job under control you can win back your leisure time, spend more time with friends and family, and do the things that bring real joy to your life.

“Taking The Stress Out Of Working Relationships”

The next modules help you deal with stress coming from other people.

 

In 'Working with Powerful People', you learn how to fairly defend your rights, protect your free time, handle seemingly unreasonable demands, and manage the complex politics of a challenging role. These skills will win you respect in the workplace, and mark you out as someone who can maturely and positively handle difficult situations.

 

The team stress module gives you useful new skills for resolving stressful conflict with your coworkers and your team. Backed by practical exercises, you’re introduced to the latest techniques for correcting structural problems within teams and working smoothly with team members. You’ll master issue resolution techniques for your mutual satisfaction. You’ll discover how to work harmoniously with coworkers, reasonably defend your rights, manage unreasonable demands and, in doing so, become a valued member of a happy, effective and successful team.

 

“Surviving the Stress You Can't Avoid”

As you would expect, the Stress Management Masterclass thoroughly explains the important topics of performance stress management, minimizing environmental stress, use of relaxation techniques, and building buffers against stress with changes to your lifestyle.

 

These help you to perform well under pressure, relax when under unavoidable stress, and eliminate the background irritations that 'niggle' away at us, increasing our experience of stress.


“From Negative Thinking to Self-Confidence”

But as well as this, you’ll learn important rational- and positive-thinking skills. These help you to see the good within situations as well as the bad, and spot opportunities in the difficulties that arise.

 

You’ll also learn Emotional Analysis and Cognitive Restructuring – new and powerful stress management tools. With Emotional Analysis you learn to use your emotions as the powerful ‘’early warning system” they are – this helps to alert you to problem situations before they become serious. With Cognitive Restructuring you learn to turn around the deep unhappiness that lies at the root of much stress.

 

Together, these skills help you to overcome the negative thinking that accompanies and sometimes even causes the experience of stress. They help you to move from unhappiness to a positive and self-confident frame of mind.

 

“Finding Real Job Satisfaction”
You’ll also learn to identify the things that give deep meaning to your work so that you can protect yourself against ill-health and burnout. Once you have identified these things, you'll know what you have to defend to protect the sense of fulfillment that is so important in a satisfying career.

 

You'll learn how to monitor yourself for burnout, and understand what to do to protect yourself against it. All of these things help you to keep alive the enthusiasm, energy and commitment to your job that will mark you out for success - even when under intense pressure.
