Under the normal stresses in a corporate setting, it is easy to be unaware of issues which could be slowing down productivity and effectiveness of employees. Further, most companies are not immune to such possibilities because every workplace contains complex individuals who are not always aware of how their interpersonal dynamics influence their work and/or how they feel at work. "In a 2009/2010 report, companies with the most effective health and productivity programs achieved 11% more revenue per employee, delivered 28% higher shareholder returns and had lower medical trends and fewer absences per employee (Towers Watson, 2010, p. 2)". Undoubtedly, the need for stress reduction workshops exists, and the expenses are far outweighed by the results.
Stress reduction training/workshops by a mental health expert are a great solution to many interpersonal and efficiency problems businesses face. They can create substantial improvement in relationships between employers and employees. These workshops can also help individuals in the workplace develop healthier habits when it comes to: performance, time management, and communication. "Eighty-five percent of employees who participated in a wellness program in the past three years agreed that the programs are effective in promoting good health (Guardian Life Insurance Company of America, 2008, p. 7)". Although often overlooked, stress reduction workshops can truly make all the difference in the workplace.
