Stress Management
What stresses you? What stresses your people?
Chances are, they’re coming from the same or similar causes. We’re not alone in the things that trouble us, that shake us, that put the “grind” in daily activities.
Deadlines, workload, the need to do more with fewer resources, challenging communication, rising frustrations, others’ expectations, strained relationships. Numerous research studies have laid out the dangers of allowing stress to build, or of carrying it too long.
Yet, in the current business and economic climate, how can we avoid it?
When stressors become constant rather than occasional, even if you or your people are not experiencing “meltdown,” there are efficiency losses that grow exponentially the longer the stressors remain. So, what to do? We have to find better methods of dealing with stress, in order to keep productivity high and avoid widespread burnout.
At Continuum, we understand. After all, we’ve spent years listening to corporate challenges. So,
we bring you RELIEF!
We’ve developed a number of stress reduction programs designed to be custom tailored for a group’s specific needs.
We begin with “Stress Assess” – an analysis of individual and team dynamics to identify your unique combination of stress factors, and the harmful behaviors and stress responses present in your environment.
Next, we offer a range of stress management tools and skill-building methods to help you and your people develop creative and constructive ways of dealing with daily pressures. These options, which we will tailor to fit your environment, include:
Lunch-and-Learn series for extended learning and habit retraining, for maximum group impact
Small-or large-format classes or webinars, for groups or multiple locations
Targeted coaching for HiPo/HiPro employees whose impact on others is widespread
Performance coaching for individuals whose stress symptoms are affecting work relationships or output
Executive coaching to ensure leadership methods that keep stress levels healthy from the top down.
During our Lunch-and-Learn or group classes we provide tools and methods to identify and minimize stressors, to understand stress triggers and heighten awareness of rising stress levels in ourselves and our colleagues. Next we focus on ways of shifting reactions, creating new behaviors, tips on communicating through stress, and how to better manage relationships before, during and after periods of stress. Additionally, we offer “Stress Alert!” techniques to deal with heightened stress reactions in the moment.
Our Stress Management Coaching programs provide a tailored approach of assessing and customizing tools based in real-time feedback for current scenarios. Our coaching clients receive the benefit of intensive behavioral retraining in the context of their actual daily functions. Common outcomes include improved communication, enhanced workplace relationships, greater emotional intelligence, improved sense of accountability and the ability to meet deadlines and manage daily activities.
You will find that the tools and methods you learn in Continuum’s Stress Management Programs will
help your people remain calm, engaged and effective during daily activities. And they are tools you will use in every facet of your life, for years to come.
