Why You Need This

So Why Should You Consider Stress Management Training For Your Employees?

Good question!
    After all, don’t you want your employees to have a certain amount of stress so that they will work harder?

   While it is true that increased levels of stress increase performance levels, this is only true to a certain point, and then performance drops significantly, as demonstrated by the Yerkes-Dodson Law. The key is to teach employees how to manage their stress so they remain at peak efficiency without experiencing overload or burnout.

Relationship between Stress (Arousal) and Performance

Stress truly is the modern epidemic! Stress is part of the dis-ease process, being a contributing factor in at least 80% of all dis-ease. And stress accumulates in the body over time unless proper Stress Management techniques are employed by the individual.

   Teaching Stress Management to employees impacts company profits in many areas, including reduced absenteeism, increased productivity, improved moral and company spirit, and a sense of the caring with which management esteems employees.
   Much of stress management is self-care—do it to yourself and for yourself. Providing this type of training for your employees shows them that you have an interest in their self-care, and that you are working to make it a team effort.

   Show that you care. Offer your employees the opportunity to learn some basic stress management skills that they can begin to implement as soon as the session is completed. Dr. Flegal is qualified to lead your employees through various levels of training, from a 90 minute introductory seminar to a more intensive half or full day workshop. The choice is yours.
