Description
The problem with stress management has been in knowing how to manage it: is relaxation possible when one needs it; what five key action areas create stress fitness; can a manager coach someone with a stress problem even when under pressure him/herself; and can teams under stress maintain high performance? This is a comprehensive and easy-to-use workbook which provides many practical answers to these questions by focusing on the individual, the manager, the team and the organization as a whole with a range of tried-and-tested techniques. A new chapter focuses on stress counselling and other techniques to take the stress out of stress management. The authors place stress management within the mainstream of management skills. They dispel some popular myths, draw on current best practice, and provide a straightforward guide to a topic that has vital implications for performance at work.
