Managing the Stress of working from Home

The American Institute of Stress reported in 2011 that “80 percent of workers feel stress on the job, nearly half say they need help in learning how to manage stress and 42 percent say their co-workers need such help.” 
Modern society has lead to a life of distractions and long hours; other research indicates that the average attention span is 8-11 seconds. Today’s challenges and competitive environment are leading to burnout and lost productivity. Stress, mental health issues and even suicides are on the rise but now folks have the opportunity to overcome these stressors. 
The Aetna CEO Mark Bertolini says, “It’s critical to invest in the human machine in trying to eliminate stressors to build resiliency. In our world, the only thing that’s going to happen with change is that it’s going to get faster and the organizations that have capable people need to have them be resilient in order to be able to make it and change, adapt and move forward. Part of creating change in an organization is creating this resiliency.”
