Managing Stress & Building Resilience Course

Develop skills to cope with stress and enhance your ability to bounce back from challenging situations.

When stress is within the optimal range, it can be positive and productive. However, when stress levels become too high, it can have negative consequences on our physical and mental health, relationships, and overall wellbeing. High levels of stress can lead to burnout, anxiety, depression, and other health issues. It can also impair our decision-making abilities and affect our productivity, creativity, and effectiveness at work.

This Managing Stress & Building Resilience course offers valuable insights into stress management, and equips you with a range of effective tools to strengthen your personal resilience. The course also helps leaders to support others during times of stress, which is particularly crucial in the face of the cost-of-living crisis and the associated responsibilities of looking after oneself and others. You will gain a deeper understanding of stress and its impact on your physical and mental health, relationships, and performance and develop practical techniques to manage stress and build resilience, including mindfulness, relaxation, cognitive restructuring, and problem-solving skills.
