Training manual sample
Below are some extracts from our Handling Pressure and Improving Performance manual.
Introduction to “Pressure”
What is pressure?
Pressure is…
-
Cambridge Dictionary
It is also commonly described as:
Every individual experiencesdifferent levels of pressure and stress, and can experience pressure in different ways. To manage our mental health and wellbeing, at work and at home, it is essential to understand where pressure 1comes from and how to interrupt the cycle of stress.
Understanding and acknowledging your limits
For many of us, the pace and intensity of working in today’s connected world contributes to increasing levels of pressure and stress. Our minds are preoccupied by work matters with less and less ‘downtime’ to reflect, process information and plan for the future. This can, in turn, lead to even greater levels of stress and prevent us from dealing with problems.
These problems affect people differently depending on their levels of resilience. Resilience is the ‘rubber ball’ factor - the ability to bounce back in the face of adversity - to carry on when met with stresses, problems and challenges, and come back stronger. Our levels of resilience vary person to person based on our beliefs, attitudes, experiences and physiology.
Developing our personal resilience enables us to handle pressure and manage the challenges that get in our way. When we are resilient, we are able to respond to problems in a calm and mindful way without becoming consumed by negative emotions. Resilient people demonstrate greater self-awareness and are less likely to punish themselves for their perceived inadequacies and failures. Furthermore, they are less likely to scold others for making mistakes. As a consequence, they tend to be strong in critical situations.
The importance of actively managing pressure
Some stress is normal, but high levels of stress for extended periods can have serious implications in both your working life and home life.
