Provides information on the critical skills managers must develop in order to prevent stress in their staff, and the key ongoing behaviours that promote a healthy work environment Shows practitioners in occupational psychology, HR, Health and Safety and related professions how positive management can be integrated into an organizationa s existing practices and processes Serves as an essential guide for managers themselves on how to incorporate proven stress management skills into their everyday interactions with team members Balances rigorous research grounding with real-world vignettes, case studies and exercises Work-related stress presents a major challenge to today's organizations. Yet for such a widespread problem, surprisingly little guidance is available on developing stress prevention management skills - and even less is backed up by solid research. Preventing Stress in Organizations addresses this problem by presenting an accessible, evidence-based exploration of how managers can reduce and prevent stress in their staff. The authors introduce an innovative programme based on their own ongoing research study (for which they were awarded 'Practitioner of the Year' by the British Psychological Society Division of Occupational Psychology), along with other relevant theories and cutting-edge work from the field. After providing a broad introduction to the importance of work-related stress and its management, they reveal a unique set of 'Positive Manager Behaviours' - skills they have identified as critical to preventing stress and promoting a healthy, positive workplace. An in-depth discussion of these behaviours is supported by detailed case studies and practical exercises to facilitate real-world implementation. Preventing Stress in Organizations offers groundbreaking insights and invaluable hands-on skills to maintain and promote the health and well-being of individuals and organizations alike. 606 $aJob stress 606 $aJob stress$xPrevention 606 $aExecutive ability 606 $aManagement 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aJob stress. 615 0$aJob stress$xPrevention. 615 0$aExecutive ability. 615 0$aManagement. 676 $a158.72 700 $aDonaldson-Feilder$b Emma$0955826 701 $aYarker$b Joanna$0955827 701 $aLewis$b Rachel$f1973-$0955828 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910141344403321 996 $aPreventing stress in organizations$92163488 997 $aUNINA
