Proposed One-Day Course Agenda

This is a proposed agenda for the course.

Morning9.30-1.00 / Afternoon 2.00-4.00

Part one – Recognising Stress

Understanding stress

  • What is pressure and what is stress?

What is stress? There are a multitude of causes and reactions to stress and we will show the physical manifestations of stress and how they have evolved.

  • Recognising your own ‘stressors’

How stress shows itself – the first step to combating stress is to understand it. From an extensive list of stress reactions the delegates will examine their own specific stressors and by group discussion identify common stress inducers.

Part two – Stress busting techniques

Eliminating stress – we will examine ways of tackling company stress. From work shop and group discussion we will develop strategies for tackling the main causes of stress. This may involve aspects of time management, assertiveness, communication strategy, strategic decision making, delegation, positive thinking and managing negative emotions.

  • How our perceptions cause stress

‘Perception is your only true reality’ as the saying goes. From our interactive group workshops we will examine how our own perceptions cause us stress and learn ‘reframing’ techniques enabling us to cope more effectively.

  • Personality and stress

Are you predisposed to be more easily affected by stress? We will examine how personality plays an important part in understanding internal stress.

  • Internal dialogue

80% of your internal dialogue is negative. We will consider ways of increasing our internal positive dialogue in specific stressful situations.

  • Coping strategies

Delegates will examine a number of coping strategies for dealing with specific high pressure situations and draft their own ‘personal coping strategy’.

Course close and paperwork

Course logistics

Proposed methods of training will include:

  • Practical exercises from workbook
  • Group discussion.
  • Video scenarios with discussion.

All delegates will receive a 70 page Stress Management workbook that doubles as an excellent post course reference manual.

All our in-house training are tailored to your requirements, this is our standard In-House Agenda but bear in mind the course could be tailored to your needs.

All delegates will complete an action plan that can be used to evaluate the skills learned from the day.

Our In-House courses are tailored to your requirements and delivered at your premises. Unlike most companies, we charge for the hire of the trainer rather than per delegate, this allows you to vary delegate numbers at no extra charge! We normally recommend between 6-12 delegates per course but this can be discussed when commissioning the training course. Our trainers will always try to accommodate your budget.

All course documentation and preparation work is also provided as part of the fee. The only additional charge would be travel expenses (and accommodation if appropriate) for those clients based outside Central London.

Below you are able to view our typical In House Agenda’s for each course, simply click on the links. Please bear in mind that the course’s can be tailored to your needs and you can also collaborate different topics from each course and Build Your Own Course!
