Introduction

NLP reveals the process and structure of how people communicate and how they experience the world. This process and structure affects everything you experience and is completely outside the awareness of most people. Now you can make it work to your full advantage by becoming aware of it and... by knowing how to use it!

  • Gather an astonishing amount of information from people within seconds, the information you need to instantly get through to them.

  • Remove stress and operate with heightened awareness, vitality and enthusiasm.

Increased responsibility, pressure and job uncertainty have led to unprecedented levels of stress in the workplace, affecting performance at work and health and happiness at home. As the cost of stress to the employer continues to grow, organizations must recognize stress in their employees and train management to manage stress productively. A recent survey showed that 1 in 5 people report their work to be very or extremely stressful, citing the nature of their work, relationships at work or their employer as the cause.

Whilst it is important for companies to audit and measure employee stress and to take all reasonable actions to design a stress free working environment, it is inevitable that stressful situations will exist in any commercial, customer driven environment.

Reducing Stress:

  • Positive economic impact on individual and team performance.

  • Maximizes your performance and motivation at work.

  • Improves your health and happiness.

This training seminar provides delegates with the skills and strategies to play a leading role in reducing team stress. Delegates become equipped with the competencies to actively identify and reduce stress in themselves and others.

Use NLP To Change The Way You Think About Stress

NLP to Manage Stress & Pressure at Work is a unique stress management program. It addresses problems caused by stress, by providing delegates with practical solutions for dealing with stress in any situation.

Use NLP To Take Charge Of Your State Of Mind

Stress is an individual physical response to a given stimulus and therefore everyone responds differently in different situations. What is acceptable for one person can be extremely stressful for another.

Only by providing employees with a clear understanding of why they feel stress, and providing them with the ability to do something about it, can companies hope to truly protect their employees.

This program introduces delegates to how the mind and body work, how physical responses are influenced by thinking patterns, and how personal conditioning can lead to stress, task avoidance, even phobic reactions.

Delegates learn how to relax, regain control and focus on taking personal ownership of their state of mind in order to achieve positive outcomes to any situation. Delegates are shown how to take charge for their own well being rather than relying on the company or other people. Delegates are then shown how to apply these skills with their team.
