Stress Smart Leaders For StressLess Teams -Assessing Team Member Stress
|
Canadian workers who trust their employers, are committed to their organizations, report good communications in the workplace, and believe they have influence over decisions that affect them, were less likely to turn over or miss work due to illness than those who reported a weak relationship.
Lowe and Schellenberg, 2001 |
THEME:
Successful organizations know that healthy employees are a competitive edge. Company leaders are in a unique position to assist employees in recognizing and dealing with the various changes and stressors faced in the workplace. The Conference Board Of Canada, 2004, emphasized in its Organizational Strategies For Success paper that managers and leaders must be supportive of their employees and they must be able to plan and program effectively for their employees. However, less that 50% of top performing companies are providing leadership training to their first-line, mid-level or senior managers.
OUTLINE:
Two major areas important to progressive leaders will be addressed in this workshop - their stress that they as leaders face in their day-to-day functioning and the skills to help detect, assess and minimize the effects of stress that those in their team may be facing.
