**Managing Workplace Anxiety**

Managing Workplace Anxiety

An Australian Training Course for Professionals

Course Overview

We've all been there, when you get that knot in the pit of your stomach on a Sunday night, and the thought of Monday morning is hanging over you like a thunder cloud. I was interviewing Rachel, a marketing manager from Brisbane, only last month, and she had told me she was beginning to dread her morning coffee because it signified yet another day of pressure cooker work. Her story is not unusual, and if you are reading this, you have probably felt something like it.

The exponential risk of workplace anxiety The rapid increase in mental health concerns in the workplace is one of Australia's greatest growing professional challenges. It's not just that you have a demanding job, it's that you're plagued with chronic worrying that makes you second guess yourself, dodge difficult conversations and haul work stress home with you like an unwelcome houseguest.

This is a class to confront real class battles that Australian workers are fighting now. From Melbourne's open plan offices to Sydney's corporate towers, Australian workers report battling information overload and demanding managers, and working in cultures that frequently prioritise productivity over their wellbeing.
