Webinar Details

In a 24/7 always-on, TNT – Time-Numbers-Technology – Driven-Distracted World, filled with change and uncertainty, developing stress and change resilience skills and strategies is critical.  Also vital is understanding the individual and organizational characteristics that facilitate burnout, as well as the burnout battlefront stages. Learn how task and human touch teams can be a vital buffer against burnout. Let the Stress Doc’s “Get FIT” – FUN-Interactive-Thought-provoking – program provide tools for a) Burnout Prevention/Recovery, b) Psychological Hardiness, and c) Natural Speed. Learn techniques for dealing with loss and change and for disarming self-defeating power struggles. Learn to positively set boundaries while gaining structures and strategies for building more diverse-inclusive-participatory teams. Finally, experience the power of sharing playful and powerful stories to break down the “Intimate FOE,” status barriers, and generate openness and camaraderie. Create a more equal “helmets off” and “we’re all in this together” atmosphere, team, and organizational culture.
