I have recently been given an assignment to develop "interpersonal skills" courses for our frontline managers. The first course they want to see is stress management. I want to get them in and out, make it relevant to their work, and really make an impact that goes beyond the classroom. One of the major complaints about training here is that it is too long and doesn't relate. I have the motivation, I just need a little push in the right direction. Thank you.

I attended a stress reduction clinic that met 2.5 hours a week for 8 weeks plus one 8 hour meeting on a Saturday. Telling managers about stress is not the same as teaching them how to cope with it. Are the managers behaving poorly?

The ultimate goal is teaching them how to deal with stress. And the request for this topic is coming directly from them. So, they are receptive, but the training needs to applicable on the floor.

It's interesting your issue. I hope my following recomendations can help you:

1. Identify the really stress origin (You can use a similar 360 evaluation, it can be interesting the family, friend, parents comments)

2. Stablish the stress level and critical times for the manager and his/her team.(You can determine if there is a strong relation between the top result business and the peak stress period/It's important to identify stress transfer to the team)

3. Define an Integral Stress Reduction Program according to the result's analysis

4. Measure the change behavior of the manager and the team (It's important to link this change to the business behavior)

5. Document the process (It's important to keep this key information for your KM model).

One thing that common to in office as well as in home is th e STRESS. Actually, there are so many tips on how to relieved stress at a time. But in the very beginning, a thing great thing that we must consider to overcome this kind of situation.
That is on how you love your work as well. If you DO NOT love your work then it would be so stressful in your part. But if you DO, then it will reduce the possible stress you will gain the whole day of work.

Firstly, Know what you want to accomplish. To change attitude and behavior it is best over a period of time.A survey of Stress Management can be done in a couple of hours.A good program should have a follow up and support system. I have been doing SM programs for over 30 years. I would be happy to help. 818 879-1373 www.jeffgero.com

You're issue is timely since we just had a mini stress management seminar last Friday at the office. I have to be honest that I didn't really learned that much from that lecture since the only thing they did was discuss what is stress is, how you can get them, what are the bad effects and how you can avoid them. There weren't really that much discussion that is relevant to our industry perse. So, I would definitely advice that if you are looking for people to give the lecture for you, be sure to ask them if they can present some training that is relevant and useful for your industry.

Get a little background on mindfulness. It is a TERRIFIC stress rdeucer and, once taught, can be practiced by the attendees in their personal and professional lives AND at their pace and on their schedule. You can colect a good deal of information online, tweak it to meet your class needs and move them in a positive, reduced-stress direction. Mindfulness works!
