Use These Tools to Become a 'Good Stress' Manager

There's bad stress and good stress. In organizations, bad stress occurs when strain comes too often, in too high a dose or at the wrong times, such as when managers are powerless to act. In poor-functioning organizations in which many people work, mid- and lower-level managers tend to suffer the most stress because they are surrounded by the impact of decisions they were powerless to influence.

Their perceptive staff, in turn, can smell their bosses' impotence, anxiety, uncertainty and futility. That can lead workers at all levels to worry about their jobs, management effectiveness and the company's well-being.

The symptoms of bad stress are easy to spot. They can include:

Employees unwilling to commit to deadlines.
Consistently missed targets.
Rare risk-taking.
A lack of volunteers for even high-profile opportunities. (more)
