How Stress Management Training Would Increase Employee Performance By 50%
In today’s world with so much competition and rush everywhere around, people, especially those belonging to the labor class, are so stressed that sometimes it gets very difficult to cope up with their work. Everybody wants to get on the top or give their best in their respective fields. However, stress is a complex issue and their reasons may differ from an organization to another. For an individual, it may be personal or professional space affecting them. Common sources of work-related stress are lower wages, excess workload, lack of opportunities for growth and social acceptance and misunderstandings or conflicted expectations and goals. Work stress has some adverse effects on an individual’s psychology and physical aspect. Stressed employees do not perform well, are in bad moods and unwilling to be productive.
An employee can excel in his/her work by indulging in activities that develop personality and help in self-management. One can work on it by managing stress and time and various other factors. Nowadays also companies benefit from stress management sessions.
Stress Management Techniques
Avoid stressors
Identify and manage a list of factors that cause stress. Do not overlook your feelings, thoughts, emotions, and behavior towards a stressful matter. Take notes of them which can help to track down your attitude while being in a particularly stressful situation.
Give some time
Devote some time to self. When the workload increases and it gets difficult to think rationally, give some time to yourself to pacify your mind. Distant yourself from the stress factor and spend some time where you feel peaceful and refreshed. When an employee is consistently working in the same environment and spends only a little time outside of it, his mind may start to block itself and not work so efficiently. Hence, vacations are sometimes very necessary to take time off work.
Healthcare
Very often when an employee is stressed, he starts to cope up with fast food, caffeine, alcohol or cigarettes. This is mostly seen in the IT field where the employees are working in a very customized workspace with a definitive set of work. To get away from the mental stress they start smoking because cigarettes have nicotine which relieves the brain for some time.
Employees should avoid these harmful approaches and rather make healthy choices, exercise regularly and meditate. Meditation has been proven best to reduce stress. Get proper sleep every day and reduce the intake of caffeine. Minimize the usage of electronics such as televisions and computers or laptops for work-related matters at night.
Maintain boundaries
Maintain a balance between personal and professional life. Do not let either of them interfere in the other. When in personal space, avoid taking work-related tasks like checking emails when at home or answer to work calls during dinner. Nonetheless, it may depend on the employee what degree of work and personal life to blend but maintaining clear boundaries between the two can reduce the conflicts and work-related stress that comes along.
Talk to a friend
Employees’ mental health has a direct connection to his work efficiency and productivity. A company should take care of it that its employees have a peaceful workspace. Many organizations provide their employees with counseling sessions and seminars that are held from time to time to discuss mental health. Open up about your stress to a trusted friend or supervisor who can guide or help you through it. Talk to senior colleagues to share your problems and discuss time management, expectations from an employee and about the betterment of your performance.
Stress management improving employee's efficiency
A positive attitude and control over stress management result in better commitment and performance by an employee in his work. Positive outcomes of an employee’s work result in the growth and success of the company. The impact of the relationship between stress management, commitment, and work performance is significant and positive.
Motivates Employees
A fresh and peaceful mind of an employee is an incentive for the company. Good stress management can help to boost employee's morale and motivate them to be focused on their work
performance which ultimately improves their productivity and eliminates bad decisions.
Reduces conflicts
Conflicts in a workplace occur due to differences in opinions, ideas and increased stress and tension. Workers start to blame each other and get into ugly situations and arguments or take up shortcut ways to complete their tasks. Conflicts are very common in a workplace with different employees who are bound to work together. This weakens the professional relationship and the whole office culture. Stress management can help avoid such unethical clashes and distractions and develops teamwork.
Better communication
Stress leads to a negative effect on interactions and miscommunications. Employees fail to discuss their ideas and thoughts very clearly. As a result, they don’t perform well as they are expected to and sometimes miss the deadlines. However, effective stress management can help bring transparency to identify the problem and solve it and help the business run smoothly.
Develops teamwork
With stressed employees, a company fails to achieve the unity of the team. The employees may feel annoyed to work with others. Managing stress can help bring in unity in the team where everybody can discuss their issues, have an open conversation related to working, provide space to other colleagues and respect their opinions as well.
Conclusion
Stress management provides space to an employee to think rationally and get away with issues that bother them. It increases an employee’s performance productivity and responsibilities towards their work. Also, a stress-free employee gets to separate and draw a fine line between his
personal and professional life which doesn’t let either of them have an impact on the other. A dedicated and valued employee is an asset to the organization who will bring profit and success to the company and help its business to function smoothly. Ultimately, the customer is satisfied with the services that a company provides through its well organized and managed employees.
