Description

Concerns about stress and the adverse impact of immense work pressures are not new, but for various reasons, work pressures seem to be growing in many areas. Supporting people who are under such immense pressure is a huge leadership challenge. This course has been developed to help leaders rise to that challenge as effectively as possible. The course is based on ten core principles, each of which has the potential to ease the burden and contribute to a healthier and happier workplace where staff feel empowered to tackle the pressures they face. These principles move a leader's focus from merely managing tasks to nurturing the team's resilience and capacity.

The ten key principles covered include: Pulling the team together and Boosting morale, while being mindful to not overload staff. It also emphasizes the importance of a healthy team culture and learning how to direct pressures appropriately. Furthermore, effective leadership under pressure requires you to encourage reflection, creativity, and learning, and to build confidence and assertiveness within your team. Critically, the course teaches you to encourage self-care, and ensure people feel valued, supported, and safe. The ultimate objective is to strategically focus on thriving, not just surviving. The course is founded on the extensive experience and expertise of Dr. Neil Thompson, a well-published author and international conference speaker. He draws directly on his significant work in the fields of human relations, wellbeing, and leadership to provide actionable, ethical, and effective guidance. Equip yourself with the expert strategies to transform pressure into performance.
