As sudden shifts to telecommuting and self-isolation have completely altered many work environments, new stressors are being thrust upon teams as they continue to strive for success in an unfamiliar landscape. In order to effectively navigate this unique time, professionals must have the proper tools for coping with workplace tension, uncertainty, and stress.
At work – an environment where we often feel pressure to remain poised at all times – it’s hard to navigate difficult conversations productively, especially at times when our emotions are already running high. As we are all coping with unprecedented anxieties, new workplace challenges can easily begin to overwhelm. Through emotional intelligence skills, however, anyone can learn to use impulse control to reduce workplace stress and respond to these challenges in productive ways.
