Did you know that a little pressure can be a good thing? It keeps us focused, engaged, and motivated. 

But too much? That’s when pressure turns into stress, leading to burnout, reduced performance, and team disengagement. How do you stop yourself, and your team from tipping over into unhealthy stress?

When we learn to manage stress and build resilience, we are better able to maintain focus, creativity, and decision-making under pressure. 

Businesses that focus on their people’s wellbeing create a healthy culture, and a loyal collaborative team better able to deal with challenges and change.

In this Wake Up Call, Polly Robinson will explore how you can get better at coping with stress and become more resilient.

Register here!

Polly will share practical tips on: 

  • steps to build resilience, manage stress, and support your team’s wellbeing.
  • how to recognise the difference between pressure and stress.
  • how to spot the triggers when you or your team are tipping into stress.
  • how to become more resilient and set healthy boundaries at work and at home.
  • how to prioritise your people’s wellbeing.

Who’s it for?

This webinar is suitable for anyone who wants to learn how to become more resilient and cope with stress, whether you are leading a business, managing a team or a freelancer juggling life and work.

More about our ‘Wake Up Call’ webinar series

These sessions take place every other Friday morning from 8.30-9am, for the BCI community to share their pearls of wisdom with one another. The half hour webinars will involve a 15 minute presentation followed by a 10 minute facilitated Q&A, with introductions from the BCI team.

Our community is full of such amazing talent so we’re giving members the stage to talk about things that excite them so they can inspire their peers. The sessions will be a mix of expert tips and tricks and case studies – the perfect opportunity to learn something new before the week is out.

Our usual online format is an interactive ‘meeting’ but for this series we’re running webinars so that it’s easy to listen in while prepping for the day ahead or while having your breakfast! Cameras and mics will be off but you can ask your questions through the chat box or submit them beforehand.

Please get in touch with Dan if you’re interested in speaking at a future session.
