Stress, Burnout, and the Power of Words
An online workshop with Dr. Willem Lammers
February 11, 2021, 16:00-17:30 CET (Zurich, Vienna, Berlin)
Registration will close on Sunday, February 7, 18:00 CET.
What is the theme?
“Are you under stress?” my sister-in-law asked when I entered her house and was surprised when I said “No”. This was apparently unusual. Stress is on everyone’s lips, even if everyone understands it differently. The same goes for burnout. The meaning of this term fluctuates in everyday life between fatigue and clinical depression. Regardless of the definitions of the terms, it is a problem for many people. It is high time for clarification and, more importantly, a way out of the patterns that lead to stress and burnout.
What does the program look like?
This one and a half hour online workshop consists of three parts:
- We start with an introduction to the theme, criteria for a healthy approach to challenges and the signs of stress that can lead to burnout. This part also invites you to reflect on your own stress level.
- We then turn to one of the most important sources of stress and burnout: the workplace. We examine what oppresses and threatens people in organisations and how organisations can help people cope with this stress. We also identify beliefs that undermine the resilience of employees and managers.
- The last part of the workshop offers you the opportunity to eliminate one or two of these limiting beliefs and to increase your resilience by applying Logosynthesis. Because you will be given a link to a video recording after the workshop, you can repeat this exercise as many times as you like afterwards, thus constantly improving your handling of stress.
How will we work?
This workshop consists of a presentation on stress and burnout and exercises on how to deal with the topic. Depending on the size of the group and the time available, there will be room for discussion – in chat or via microphone.
