June 11, 2014 Learn What Stress Is Trying to Tell You If stress is affecting your performance at work or hurting your relationships, change the way you think about it. Seeing stress as a signal instead of a threat can drive positive change. Ask yourself: What's causing this stress? If it's your colleagues, take that as a signal to heal valuable relationships and rethink how you interact with others. If you're overwhelmed from a promotion or new role, take a closer look at why. Are you struggling with delegating old tasks or accepting new ones? Use this as an opportunity to develop key strategic leadership skills – reach beyond your comfort zone and embrace your new responsibilities. If the stress is simply due to a work crisis, recognize that these happen to everyone, apologize if necessary, and move forward. Adapted from " Stress Isn't a Threat, It's a Signal to Change" by David Brendel. |
