Abstract:
Motivation: Stress has become a major predicament in
business and leaders are increasingly susceptible to it. Stress
has been implicated as an important determinant of leadership
functioning. Their stress is proven to impact their followers
(companies, countries, team members) and if not prevented or
managed properly, it can result in anxiety, depression, and as a
direct consequence: burnout, or worse. CEOs and management
face many challenges, and critical failures and overwhelming
odds can easily break anyone down and make them lose sight
of their goals. They have to have the skills to overcome stressful
situations and demonstrate conduct that will make a business,
an organization or country, productive and profitable.
The Problem: A leader’s stress level will influence his or her
behavior and that can impact the stress levels and potential
for burnout in subordinates. A lack of resources and time are
the most stressful demands experienced by leaders. Stress
is caused by trying to do more with less, and to do it faster.
For 88% of leaders, work is a primary source of stress in their
lives and having a leadership role increases the level of stress.
Unfortunately, very few (only 28%) companies provide tools to
help management deal with stress more effectively.
Methodology:
Study & Results: During the many years, I have worked with
business leaders, I have come to recognize the 7 most common
stressor determinants and I have developed methodology to
conquer them.
The top 7 sources are: 1. Expected High Performance in a
Short Period of Time, 2. Strong Brand Loyalty, 3. Conflict
Management, 4. Reputation Management, 5. Hiring the Right
Team, 6. Professional Obligations vs. Balanced Life, 7. Lack of
Support and Accountability;
The new avenues for stress prevention and management
(individual versus corporate approach) are using stress as
an efficient fuel: 1. Using certain technology, online media
platforms, aps, to increase productivity, efficiency, and profits
as well as leaders’ wellbeing and confidence. 2. Creating strong
bonds with clients using innovation and differentiation, that
results in full control over the process. 3. Address & control
conflict with authority, even before it arises. 4. Learning strong
communication with the right infrastructure and teamwork.
5. Mastering the art of delegation & hiring the right people
to maximize efficiency. 6. Demonstrating healthy & balanced
conduct as an example for the company. (Vacation, hiking
conferences, team building, wellbeing) 7. Establishing support
& accountability systems in place outside of corporate
environment (masterminds, mentors, coaches, trainings,
business conferences).
These case studies were based on my clients’ feedback and
their results achieved within less than one year of their solid
commitment, execution and implementation of the proposed
methods used in my business practice
