Different situations have different effects on people. While some people may thrive in one area, it may be the most stressful situation for another. Stress is a physical response to an undesirable or threatening situation. It is a natural response and your body’s way of protecting itself.
Stress can help you focus and stay alert in some situations. Stress can help you focus on what needs to be done, when it helps you rise to the challenge of the situation. If stress is consistent and not managed properly, it can be detrimental to your health.
Since stress can have a strong negative affect on your wellbeing, it needs to be managed correctly for one to be in control of their overall health. Thus, it is important for a manager to make sure that the work environment for their team, as well as themselves, is one in which stress can be successfully managed.
