The challenge to respond appropriately is never greater than when you are under stress. But Stress Management is not just about keeping your cool under pressure. As Michael explains, stressed-out managers become disengaged from their work – and from their workers. How can you engage your employees if you yourself are disengaged? In this podcast Michael explains the two related elements of Stress Management: Stress Tolerance and Impulse Control. He explains that Stress Tolerance is a muscle that can be exercised and developed, however, it’s also important not to work yourself beyond the tolerance you’ve developed. Impulse Control plays a role here, both in working effectively, and also in knowing when to quit. Once again, we see how the layers of Emotional Intelligence support each other. Not just our own resources (Intrapersonal), but also the support of others (Interpersonal) come into play in helping us to manage stress. Feedback: Michael AT QBC.ie. Call or text +353 87 2602205.
