2017 Education Series: Stress Management

(The eRight Angle has gone out with the incorrect date for this session. It had the date of August 10th. The correct date is as stated above - August 9th. Apologies for any confusion.)

While some workplace stress is normal, excessive stress can interfere with your productivity and performance, impact your physical and emotional health, and affect your relationships and home life. It can even mean the difference between success and failure on the job. You can’t control everything in your work environment, but that doesn’t mean you’re powerless—even when you’re stuck in a difficult situation. Whatever your ambitions or work demands, there are steps you can take to protect yourself from the damaging effects of stress, improve your job satisfaction, and bolster your well-being in and out of the workplace.

Join us on August 10^th for tips on how to deal with stress in the workplace. Our speaker will be Peg Ricker, a reasoned professional from the Madison College Speakers Bureau.
