The arrival of the pandemic and the real threat to our work environments, and indeed our lives, has made many people acutely aware of their own stress levels, and the impact of these levels on our wellbeing.

 

However, with every threat, there is almost certainly an opportunity. In this case, this opportunity might take the form of a wholescale review of our current work-life balance, and the possible implementation of better ways to be and live. At the centre of this change must be our well-being and how we perceive and deal with stress.

 

The seminar will cover:

 

  • How and why some stress, is not only good for us, but is essential to our performance in life.
  • A review of the three factors which dominate stress production – FID: Frequency, Intensity and Duration.
  • How being aware of this ever-changing stress combination can put us at the front of the proactive curve to combat stress before it starts to become a negative factor.

Take home points:

  • Measurement techniques of stress that delegates can use to quickly measure stress levels.
  • Quick fix strategies to alleviate stress.
  • Longer term strategies based around five pillars which will enhance performance, health and enjoyment of life.

This session is for:

SBLs and school leaders

 

This session runs at our Edexec LIVE North and South event
