Maximising potential through continuous development

Introduction

The Health and Safety Executive describe work related stress as

“the adverse reaction people have to excessive pressure or

other types of demand placed on them”.  But what is ‘excessive’

and why do people react so differently to the same situation? 

Why is ‘pressure’ motivating for some and potentially debilitating

for others? 

 

One answer is that as individuals we are all unique; our personality,

life experience and beliefs combine to establish a framework from

which we engage in the world around us. No one is exempt from the

possibility that, at some time in their life, they may suffer from stress

and consequently a stress related condition, affecting both work and home life.

Methods of Working

Our programmes offer “delivery with a difference”.  In addition to the delivering group workshops, from either a management or individual perspective, we are able to offer supplementary and on-going one-to-one coaching or mentoring support providing opportunities for personal reflection and problem resolution.
