RESILIENCE – the Power to Succeed! International Stress Awareness Week and Conference: 3-8 November 2019
September 2019
Every year, in the UK an estimated 17 million days are lost to stress, anxiety and depression [Mental Health Foundation].
Some people cope with stressful situations better than others, mainly due to being more resilient. These people thrive whilst others around them crumble under pressure. But the good news is that resilience is not a fixed entity and is not something that a person is blessed with, or not. It can be taught and the workplace is an ideal place for people to learn how to build their resilience.
The UK based International Stress Management Association (ISMA) is the leading professional body for workplace and personal stress management, wellbeing and performance. A registered charity, ISMA exists to promote sound knowledge and best practice in stress management, both nationally and internationally.
ISMA’s conference is on Friday, 8 November 2019 will be the concluding highlight of International Stress Awareness Week, with International Stress Awareness Day itself taking place on Wednesday, 6 November 2019 and many other events and activities during the week, including a Stress Fair, On-line Global Stress Summit, and national Stress Helpline.
ISMA’s annual conference will be led by thought leaders from around the world and will address:
- Stress and Wellbeing: past, present and future
- Why it is important to build personal resilience
- How to manage stress – both at home and at work
- The impact of mental toughness and performance
- Wellbeing: productivity and happiness at work
- Why resilience is the secret to success
Discover proven interventions that can be implemented immediately back to the workplace.
