Build a Stress Free Team: A Guide for Leaders and Managers

By David a Okrent

This book is built around the idea that "people reach their highest potential when they choose to live stress free." What would it be like if your team and you could live free of stress? How much energy and creativity do you think this would unleashed? It's time to cast off the assumption that some stress is required to ensure a team will be innovative and productive. Yes, there are rare exceptions, times when stress did cause a gain; however studies show more stress typically yields less creativity, lower retention, and loss of long-term productivity. If you believe a team needs pressure to be productive then ask yourself, are you the one that needs the stress? How are your beliefs about yourself impacting the team? Are you willing to consider letting go of your need for stress in exchange for becoming more relaxed, creative, and productive? Do you want your team to achieve the same? If yes, then this book is for you. If your team and you are stress free does it mean there can't be deadlines? Does it mean you will never have conflicts in, or external pressures on, your team? Of course not, life is life and stuff is always happening; good and bad, positive and negative, fast and slow, and scarce and abundant. The key is how we choose to think, feel, and react as individuals and as a team to planned or unplanned events. It's possible to be in a situation and not be defined by it. This book focuses on what you, the leader or manager, can do to help your team and yourself move towards operating stress free. The content of this book provides you the background, exercises, and practices to help you achieve your goal. Imagine what it would be like to work in, with, and for a team that can achieve their full potential with little or no stress.
