Being unprepared for escalating demands of 21st Century work causes stress and overwhelm—undermining your productivity and effectiveness.
You are not prepared to deal powerfully with this faster, more complex environment.
When faced with the unrelenting demands of work in the 21st Century, we commonly think that there is something wrong with us.
In fact, you simply do not have tools and work habits to deal powerfully with this faster, more complex environment. You are left scrambling to “get caught up” in a world where getting everything done is impossible.
Being unprepared for work in the 21st Century causes worry, stress and overwhelm.
In its October 2002 issue, Fortune magazine reported that “stress in the workplace is skyrocketing” and has reached “record levels.”
Experts say job stress is linked to your sense of control. Less control equals more stress. Current research shows that, in the face of escalating work demands, people feel overwhelmed and anxious – undermining their confidence and effectiveness.
Stress and overwhelm directly impact your productivity.
The National Institute for Occupational Health and Safety recently disclosed that the number of American workers who consider stress to be a major problem in their lives has more than doubled during the past ten years.
Fully one-third of American workers – who work longer hours than their counterparts in any industrialized country – felt overwhelmed by the amount of work they had to do, according to a 2001 Families and Work Institute survey.
A Reuters survey found that two-thirds of managers worldwide suffer from increased tension and one-third from ill health because of information overload.
In a recent study measuring workers' emotions about their jobs, human resources consultants Towers Perrin reported that more than half of the emotion was negative, with the biggest single factor being workload, but also a sense that work doesn't satisfy their deeper needs

"I'm a single parent, working full time—so juggling work, home and my social life placed me on a treadmill that left me unfulfilled, drained and powerless. I could not see how else to live my life. Taking this course showed me that there was another way to live and work. I am now relaxed, confident and in control."
