Are your employees too stressed?
Reaching tough goals can be rewarding, overcoming challenges can be energizing! It is this type of ‘good stress’ that leads to individual development and business growth. But ‘bad stress’ can lead to burnout, poor team morale and a decline in performance. Any job –even the one you love, will likely bring on stress at some point. Not handling it properly can mean the difference between success and failure.
Bad stress can come from different areas such as organizational change, lack of control and even from the daily demands placed upon the employee. Successful managers stay in tune to their employees’ stress level. They know how to encourage the ‘good stress’ while reducing the ‘bad stress’ and are constantly on the look out for the telltale signs that stress is leading an employee down the path to burnout.
