Preventing Stress at Work™| Stress Management Training Activity

• About the issues surrounding stress
• To understand the common causes and symptoms of stress
• To recognise early indicators
• How to deal with stress
• The benefits of work-life balance
• To develop a greater understanding of their own and other people’s response to stress

Using a tried and tested format - sets of mini-task cards for groups to address - you’ll cover a whole range of issues relating to stress at work in a fun, relaxing, non-threatening format.

Address the different degrees of stress, the way the word stress means different things and the misconceptions in people’s views of stress. Look at examples of real situations to help identify your own stress indicators and the possible causes. Then consider the merits of common, stress-preventing techniques and how they can be easily implemented and to good effect. Responses are noted on a special handout, for reference at the Debrief.

Stimulates great discussion (a stress-buster in itself!). Great, interactive exercise to use on people-management courses.

1. Introduce the activity using the PowerPoint presentation provided.
2. Allocate the board, cards and playing pieces.
3. Observe teams in action.
4. Lead a discussion and Debrief at the end.
