Self-Diagnostic Approach to Understanding Organizational and Personal Stressors

The C-O-P-E Model for Stress Reduction

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book was written to help organizations and their members better manage stress. Through a simple framework, C-O-P-E, human resource managers are provided the tools with which to determine if they and their organization are in Control, are showing Outward signs of distress, have Personality predispositions which escalate or de-escalate stress levels, and are Energy-balanced. The book's tone is optimistic, and its theme is: If there is a stress problem, identify it, fix it, but never ignore it. Treatment interventions typically employed by stress experts for fixing stress problems are discussed. Case histories are discussed to give managers a clearer understanding of what can go wrong with coping efforts, and what individuals and organizations can do to turn a negative situation into a positive one. Professionals, such as human resource managers and industrial psychologists, and those teaching and researching in such fields as human resource development and training and organizational behavior, will be interested in this work.
