Stress Management and Avoidance provides an important set of coping and relating skills for the modern working environment.  With more demands on all levels in an organization and less time available to complete required functions, stress is everywhere.  The program will focus on where stress originates, why we react in certain ways and compound stress and how to reduce and avoid stress where possible.

Two power skills in Stress Management and Avoidance involve the sphere of concern and the sphere of influence.  Learning to manage those aspects of your life and work will yield significantly reduced stressful reactions.  Ultimate accountability for stress is also a hallmark of this program.
