Who Should Attend

Any manager who needs to have the understanding and skills to manage stress in themselves and their staff - an understanding of the causes and effects of stress at work and the implementation of ways in which stress can be managed positively.
 

An effective manager is one who is aware of what causes stress within their staff and themselves and is able to proactively manage it. We are all working with stress and for many the level of stress is increasing, so we need to take positive action for the benefit of the organisation, ourselves and our staff.
