Stress Management Programs for Individuals and Organisations

What prevents you from performing at peak?

The primary responsibilities of the Quality Assurance Department are to ensure that the delivered product or service meets the standards required by the organisation but what is it that actually prevents both management and employees from meeting the highest standards required from them? Taking it as a given that both management and employees are qualified to do the job then there are really only two things that prevent them from performing on peak: the first is physical health and the second is state of mind.

What does stress cost you?

“Stress is the most common cause of ill health in our society, probably underlying as many as 70% of all visits to family doctors.” (David B. Posen, MD. The Canadian Journal of Continuing Medical Education, April 1995)

"Stress has been linked to hypertension, heart attacks, diabetes, asthma, chronic pain, allergies, headache, backache, various skin disorders, cancer, and immune system weakness." ([1] Nation’s Business, December, 1994 in Research on Stress and Meditation.)
