Agenda:

Susanne Madsen is an internationally recognised project leadership coach, trainer, author and co-founder of The Project Leadership Institute. On January 25^th she will present a webinar on How Project Managers Can Deal with Stress and Avoid Burnout

As an experienced project manager of large change programmes, Susanne has first-hand experience of how stressful project management can be. As a result of working in a high-pressure environment for several years, Susanne’s body became infested with stress to the point where she could barely walk. She was forced to slow down and make some important changes in her work and life. She learnt to set boundaries and leave work behind when she left the office. She also got better at delegating, asking for help and began to focus on activities outside of work that fuelled her energy. 

Susanne’s story is not unusual. Almost all project managers have experienced stress on their projects and far too many suffer from ill health as a result. Whereas short bursts of stress can have a positive effect on performance, prolonged stress is harmful and can cause burnout. In this webinar Susanne will explain the underlying patterns that lead to stress and provide tips and insights that can help you stay clear of negative stress and work within your zone of peak performance.

The webinar will help you to:

• Balance positive and negative stress
• Avoid chronic stress that can lead to burn-out
• Understand why you are prone to overworking yourself
• Set boundaries and deal with challenging behaviours
• Respond appropriately to situations as opposed to over-reacting
• Develop skills that lead to more productive thoughts and habits
• Increase your wellbeing as a project manager
