Stress Quotient™
Employees appreciate it when their organization takes steps to improve the quality of work life, and high performers demand it. Identifying and addressing the causes of stress for individuals and organizations leads to improved performance, quality of employer-employee relationship, and strategic decisions of the organization.
Our Stress Quotient assessment measures seven index factors, revealing how stress affects the overall health, productivity and morale of individuals, teams, and the overall organization:
- Job Demands
- Effort/Reward Balance
- Control
- Organizational Change
- Manager/Supervisor
- Team Culture
- Job Situation
Communication & Collaboration
As mentioned above, tackling stress for individuals and teams within your organization not only raises productivity but also reinforces the employment relationship. Validating and addressing key areas of stress removes obstacles while enabling your people to succeed.
Organizational Culture
The way workers feel directly impacts their level of focus and engagement and stress is a big part of how they feel. By being able to safely express their concern about the levels and impact of stress can have an immediate positive outcome. Additionally, those insights can inform strategic decisions.
Performance Growth and Training
Identifying primary stressors and discussing them with peers and management catalyzes individual growth. Commonly received as a positive win-win approach to addressing performance concerns, this can be implemented alongside or as a substitute for traditional disciplinary measures.
Team Effectiveness
The average team member may not be entirely in tune with the emotions of their teammates. By understanding where their teammates are feelings stress, they are enabled to understand how to approach their peers more effectively and minimize actions that cause stress or discord.
