What are Your Q4 Stress Management Essentials?

I don’t know how you feel but, for me, this year is flying by!

As we are racing through the final quarter of 2024, I thought it would be useful if I share the biggest thing I'm hearing from the housing and professional services companies I talk to with regard to leadership and wellbeing support and development.

When I ask what people are struggling with, or what’s the biggest reason for absence, the answer is the same... Every. Single. Time.

Stress!!?

The good news is, with Stress Awareness Week coming up 5th-9th November 2024, there's no better time to focus on empowering your leadership team with effective stress management tools.

The Rising Tide of Workplace Stress?

In case you’re not convinced or, what I hear more commonly is a need to “back up requests with persuasive information”, then here are some of the latest stats from recent studies. They certainly paint a compelling picture of the stress landscape in UK businesses:

?? 82% of UK managers report experiencing work-related stress in the past year (CIPD Health and Wellbeing at Work 2024).

?? Stress-related absences have increased by 37% since 2019 (Office for National Statistics, 2024).

?? Work-related stress costs UK businesses an estimated ￡45 billion annually in lost productivity (Deloitte, 2024).

These statistics underscore the urgent need for proactive stress management strategies, especially for those in leadership positions.
