The Workplace Stress Toolkit

Grace, Corporate Lawyer

"I was feeling overwhelmed by deadlines and the pressures of a large corporate, but now I feel like I have techniques to manage my stress. They're so simple and immediately make me feel calmer. It doesn't feel like another thing on my to-do list."

Samantha, GM People & Culture

It is easy to walk into a session on stress and pressure thinking you have heard it all before but this experience was genuinely different. Hearing from someone who has first hand experience of workplace pressure gave Keri’s message real credibility and depth. What I valued most was leaving with a practical tool to help me manage the pressure I personally experience. Although I was aware that I was under pressure in my role I had not fully understood the impact it can have on the body. Keri explained this in such clear, relatable terms that I know the learning will stay with me. I especially appreciated the insight into what it means to be in the “yellow” or “green” zone, and, more importantly, what to do about it. Since the workshop, I have practised the breathing technique every day and even used it in a meeting. I can now say from first hand experience that this technique works much to my surprise and likely a surprise to my stakeholder as well. Attending Keri’s session has also sparked a genuine interest in learning more about mindfulness and what to do about working under stress. Thank you Keri for sharing your knowledge in such a practical and valuable way. I thoroughly enjoyed it!!
