Are you working in an inventive organization where leaders navigate stress effectively? Do the leaders in your organization help others sustain high performance while under pressure? Does your company or law firm offer stress management programs for management and employees?
One of the most powerful questions one can ask is “How well do I navigate stress and maintain high levels of energy under pressure?” Stress resilient leaders have focused energy and help others become stress hardy working under pressure.
Are you a leader who models a calm and inspiring leadership style? Are you able to create a high performance workplace where employees are emotionally and physically healthy and fully engaged? Is your organizational culture supportive of healthy work-life balance for everyone? Do organizational leaders encourage stress prevention and wellness?
Personal Mastery
Personal mastery of stress begins by recognizing that it’s a palpable force in the workplace—one for which we must proactively prepare. Of course, a certain amount of stress is the norm in business, but recognizing its signs and symptoms is essential for diminishing and controlling detrimental reactions.
Accepting a degree of chaos becomes part of the challenge. Instead of looking at change and uncertainty as a series of calamities, we can reframe these situations as exhilarating experiences that provide opportunities.
As with river rafting, one’s environment cannot be controlled. But with the right skills, we can navigate and enjoy the turbulence instead of fearing it. Negative stress can be reduced by reframing our perceptions.
Working with a seasoned executive coach trained in emotional intelligence and incorporating leadership assessments such as the Bar-On EQ-i and CPI 260 can help you become an inspiring leader who displays the qualities of calm leadership and stress resiliency. You can become a leader who models emotional intelligence and social intelligence, and who inspires people to become happily engaged with the strategy and vision of your company or law firm.
