Coping with Personal and Relationship Stress

To avoid peaks and valleys of productivity created by high stress levels, you need employees who know how to balance the urgent demands of work life and personal life. Even when things run smoothly, the cumulative effects of day-to-day stressors affect the way people behave. The Coping & Stress Profile® is a unique learning instrument that connects stress and coping in four life areas: Personal, Work, Couple, and Family. Learners in this class will gain important insights into how stress in one area impacts other areas, how coping resources in one area can be used to decrease stress in another, and how stress, coping resources, and overall satisfaction are closely related.

By using the Coping & Stress Profile®, we discuss and learn about the four key relationship coping resources:

• Problem solving
• Communication
• Closeness
• Flexibility

Through our team approach to learning, the customization we provide for you, the classroom activities and the personal assessment, we help people in your organization:

• Discover individual stress issues in each life area
• Capitalize on coping strengths to manage stress
• Learn to minimize or eliminate common, daily stressors
• Identify areas for coping skills improvement
• Develop flexibility in responding to change
• Communicate more effectively to improve problem solving
• Building mutually supportive relationships
