Managing Stress in the Workplace

Year after year mental health at work continues to be a massive challenge in the business environment and the changing economy brings a different set of hurdles each time. But one thing seems to remain constant: No matter the external economic conditions, managing health and wellbeing in the workplace greatly increases your performance and ultimately, your profitability.  Graeme Cowan one of Australia's leading workplace mental health speakers has created this list to assist in creating a thriving workplace.

Schedule when and where to do the thing that keeps you centred, and feeds your soul.

2 REFUEL DAILY

Make time to eat well, rest well, and take 10,000 steps.

3 NURTURE SELF

Schedule quality time each week for people that are good for you.

4 PLAY TO STRENGTH

Encourage those important to you to develop their top five strengths.

5 PROGRESS IS BETTER

...than perfection - celebrate and be grateful for small victories

6 ASK R U OK?

Care for the person you are with - and if you are by yourself - that’s you!

7 TRUE TO SELF?

Ask weekly if you like yourself, like what you are doing, and how you are doing it – reset.
