About this event

Do you feel it is getting increasingly difficult to achieve the results you want in your programs or projects? If you do, you are not alone. Stress is the #1 cause of mental and physical health issues.

Most stress goes unnoticed or misdiagnosed and in nonprofits, heroic efforts are par for the course or a badge of honor. In short bursts, stress can be productive and lead to peak performance. Ongoing stress leads to dysfunctional burnout and damage to cognitive functioning. Long-term, the mental and physical impact is significant and can be crippling.

Whether you are a nonprofit leader or team member, research shows that 87% of employees worldwide are stressed and become emotionally disconnected from their workplaces due to stress. Organizations must take steps to understand, detect, and address stress to prevent burnout.

Attendees will learn:

Techniques for leading during turbulent times

Effective steps to reduce stress on the spot

Why stress is increasing and the 7 major root cause categories of stress

How to identify the root cause of stress

Strategies to prevent burnout
