Conquer Stress, Achieve Success: How to be Calmer, Happier and More Effective in the Workplace

by Claire Harris (Author)

Synopsis

In the 21st-century business environment, stress has become a way of life - an accepted occupational hazard. Moreover, the global financial crisis of 2008-2009 has heightened stress levels in an unprecedented way. Now is the time for change. "Minimise Stress, Maximise Success" is a personal development manual aimed at millions of stressed executives and managers who need practical, reliable strategies for dealing with the pressures of their careers. The book provides a wealth of practical guidance on how to think effectively, how to boost your energy and resilience, how to put pressure in perspective, how to avoid fatigue, and how to draw upon inner resources to calm and focus the mind. "Minimise Stress, Maximise Success" benefits from the author's unique combination of experience in mind-body therapy, complementary health teaching and management development. A whole chapter ('Sounds Familiar') is dedicated to the most common complaints within the workplace - for example, I've got too much on my plate, I'm drowning in emails and My job is under threat. We learn dozens of fail-safe ways to identify underlying problems, decide on optimum solutions, and then put those solutions speedily into effect.
