Default Managers dealing with stress - coaching psychology helps

PRESS RELEASE FROM THE BRITISH PSYCHOLOGICAL SOCIETY

Unlike most guidelines for managing stress at work, which are aimed at reducing and preventing stress in employees, a new self-help stress management program has been developed enabling employees to manage their stress themselves.

Creator of the program, Dr Stefania Grbcic, a Chartered Psychologist with considerable experience in stress management, will present her research at the first International Coaching Psychology Conference held at City University London, on Monday 18th and Tuesday 19th December 2006, and organised by the British Psychological Society Special Group in Coaching Psychology.

The results of the research have been reported to be very encouraging; middle managers, suffering from the debilitating effects of stress, can learn how to manage and contain their stress. The benefits are clear: individuals take responsibility for their stress management, reducing the need for other, probably more costly, interventions. Both the individual, and the organisation, are winners.

Dr Grbcic said; “Research on the stress self-coaching manual has produced significant results in reducing stress levels in middle managers. Results of the current research indicate that managers learn effective ways of dealing with their stress with little support.”

The conference provided a full programme of stimulating and informative sessions reflecting the developing field of coaching psychology with papers being presented by leading national and international coaching psychologists. Themes for the conference were topical and reflect the exciting evolution of this area of psychology.
