INDIVIDUAL HR-PRO COACHING AND SUPPORT

Stress Reduction Strategies and Increased Emotional Health

This is an individual coaching and skill development service with the goal of de-stressing HR’s unique challenges and  increased mental health for a less anxious way of living. HR-Pros face special workplace challenges. This is due in part to who is attracted to the profession – folks who like to help people and improve systems. They typically have more work than can be done in a normal schedule. There’s also the nature of the position. HR reports to “the company” and must support company goals for profit and efficiency. They also support middle managers, coaching them and supporting their leadership over their teams. HR is also tasked with supporting individual employees who may have issues with the company, their manager or both. Finally, HR is often understaffed. Oftenworking alone, an HR department of one can be a powerful force working against self-care and scheduling essential time off.

  • Sessions may begin at weekly, semi-weekly or monthly and transition to longer intervals with the goal of moving to an “as needed” model.
  • Together, we will review the Six Foundations of Ongoing Wellbeing – and stress reduction.
  • Tailoring stress reduction to your style & personality, you can select personal challenges you would like to address – that might lead to increased self-confidence, boundary-setting or anxiety-reduction.
  • Finally, we can review and discuss specific challenges navigating your workplace
