The Workplace is Full of Stress

Stress triggers in the workplace are just as numerous as the external triggers.

Stressors include bosses, deadlines, coworkers, customers, production, service, product management, accounting problems, computer services, engineering concerns, sales, marketing, advertising, public relations, human resources, stockholders, legal issues, and distribution. Every department causes stress for itself and for others.

Where do you fit into this chain of stressors?

Do your daily requirements demand too much of others?

Can you modify your requirements to make things less stressful?

Would increasing the stress on your suppliers provide the results you need?

Control the stress of those who support you, increasing stress when needed to get better results or reduce stress to give others a break and make your team stronger.
